Abstract
We study the properties of the charged kaon in symmetric nuclear matter using a Bethe-Salpeter amplitude to model the quark-antiquark bound state, which is well constrained by previous studies of its vacuum properties. The electromagnetic form factor, charge radius, decay constant, and the light-front valence component probability are investigated in symmetric nuclear matter. In order to describe the constituent up and antistrange quarks in nuclear matter, we adopt the “quark-meson coupling (QMC) model,” which has been widely applied to various hadronic and nuclear phenomena in the nuclear medium.
