Vector meson mass in medium and dilepton production from heavy-ion collisions /

In this dissertation, hadron properties at finite density and temperature are investigated. In particular, the Walecka model is used to study the effective mass of a nucleon in a dense medium. The model is further generalized to evaluate the mass shift of vector mesons, such as the rho, omega and...
