In-medium mass shifts of $B_c^{(*)}, B_s^{(*)}$ and $D_s^{(*)}$ mesons

We present our predictions for the Lorentz scalar mass shifts of two-flavored heavy mesons, $B_c^{(*)}, B_s^{(*)}$ and $D_s^{(*)}$ in symmetric nuclear matter. The in-medium mass shifts are estimated by evaluating the lowest order one-loop self-energies of the mesons based on a flavor-SU(5) effective Lagrangian approach. In-medium properties necessary for the estimates are calculated by the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model. The enhanced self-energies of the mesons in symmetric nuclear matter relative to those in free space, yield the negative mass shifts of these mesons.

Two-flavored heavy mesons' nuclear bound states

We calculate the $B_c$- and $B_s$-nucleus bound state energies and coordinate space radial wave functions by solving the Klein-Gordon equation in momentum space. The attractive strong potentials for the $B_c$ and $B_s$ mesons in nuclei are calculated from the respective mass shifts of these mesons in nuclear matter using a local density approximation. This negative mass shift may be regarded as a signature of partial restoration of chiral symmetry in medium in an empirical sense, because the origin of the negative mass shift in the present study is not directly related to the chiral symmetry mechanism.

In-medium mass shift of two-flavored heavy mesons, $B_c$, $B^*_c$, $B_s$, $B^*_s$, $D_s$ and $D^*_s$

For the first time, we estimate the in-medium mass shift of the two-flavored heavy mesons $B_c, B_c^*, B_s, B_s^*, D_s$ and $D_s^*$ in symmetric nuclear matter. The estimates are made by evaluating the lowest order one-loop self-energies. The enhanced excitations of intermediate state heavy-light mesons in symmetric nuclear matter are the origin of their negative mass shift. This negative mass shift may be regarded as a signature of partial restoration of chiral symmetry in an empirical sense because the origin of the negative mass shift in the study is not directly related to the chiral symmetry mechanism. Our results show that the magnitude of the mass shift for the $B_c$ meson ($\bar{b} c$ or $b \bar{c}$) is larger than those of the $η_c (\bar{c} c)$ and $η_b (\bar{b} b)$, different from a naive expectation that it would be in between them. While, that of the $B_c^*$ shows the in between of the $J/ψ$ and $Υ$. We observe that the lighter vector meson excitation in each meson self-energy gives a dominant contribution for the corresponding meson mass shift, $B_c, B_s,$ and $D_s$.

$B_c, B^{*}_c, B_s, B^{*}_s, D_s$ and $D^{*}_s$ mass shift in a nuclear medium
