$Φ$ and $J/Ψ$ Mesons in Cold Nuclear Matter

Abstract: We present $\Phi$- and $J/\Psi$--nuclear bound state energies and absorption widths for some selected nuclei, using potentials in the local density approximation computed from an effective Lagrangian approach combined with the quark-meson coupling model. Our results suggest that these mesons should form bound states with all the nuclei considered provided that these mesons are produced in nearly recoilless kinematics.
