abstract
Differential cross sections for elastic scattering of 21.5 MeV positive and negative pions by Si, Ca, Ni and Zr have been measured as part of a study of the pion-nucleus potential across threshold. The `anomalous' repulsion in the s-wave term was observed, as is the case with pionic atoms. The extra repulsion can be accounted for by a chiral-motivated model where the pion decay constant is modified in the medium. Unlike in pionic atoms, the anomaly cannot be removed by merely introducing an empirical on-shell energy dependence.

Valence quark distribution of the pion inside a medium with finite baryon density: A Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model approach
The authors use the two-flavor NJL model to obtain medium-modified constituent quark masses and then compute the in-medium pion electromagnetic form factor, distribution amplitude, and parton distribution function via light-cone wave functions, with DGLAP evolution applied.
