abstract
Using the light-front pion wave function based on a Bethe-Salpeter amplitude model, we study the properties of the pion in symmetric nuclear matter. The pion model we adopt is well constrained by previous studies to explain the pion properties in vacuum. In order to consistently incorporate the constituent up and down quarks of the pion immersed in symmetric nuclear matter, we use the quark-meson coupling model, which has been widely applied to various hadronic and nuclear phenomena in a nuclear medium with success. We predict the in-medium modifications of the pion lectromagnetic form factor, charge radius and weak decay constant in symmetric nuclear matter.

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.
