Neutron star structure in an in-medium modified chiral soliton model
We study the internal structure of a static and spherically symmetric neutron
star in the framework of an in-medium modified chiral soliton model. The
Equations of State describing an infinite and asymmetric nuclear matter are
obtained introducing the density dependent functions into the low energy free
space Lagrangian of the model starting from the phenomenology of pionic atoms.
The parametrizations of density dependent functions are related to the
properties of isospin asymmetric nuclear systems at saturation density of
symmetric nuclear matter ~fm. Our results,
corresponding to the compressibility of symmetric nuclear matter in the range
250\,\mbox{MeV}\le K_0\le 270\,\mbox{MeV} and the slop parameter value of
symmetry energy in the range 30\,\mbox{MeV}\le L_S\le 50\,\mbox{MeV}, are
consistent with the results from other approaches and with the experimental
indications. Using the modified Equations of State, near the saturation density
of symmetric nuclear matter , the extrapolations to the high density
and highly isospin asymmetric regions have been performed. The calculations
showed that the properties of and neutron
stars can be well reproduced in the framework of present approach.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures, 3 table
Mesons and nucleons from holographic QCD
We present in this talk a recent investigation on a unified approach within
the framework of a hard-wall model of AdS/QCD. We first study a theoretical
inconsistency in existing models. In order to remove this inconsistency, we
propose a unified approach in which the mesons and the nucleons are treated on
the same footing, the same infrared (IR) cutoff being employed in both
fermionic and bosonic sectors. We also suggest a possible way of improving the
model by introducing a five-dimensional anomalous dimension.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figures. A talk give at the Workshop on "Hadron and

Electromagnetic form factors of bound nucleons revisited
We investigate the possible modifications of the nucleons' electromagnetic
form factors in the framework of a modified Skyrme model allowing for nucleon
deformation and using realistic nuclear mass distributions. We show that such
effects are small in light nuclei.Comment: 5 pp, 2 figure
