CHIRAL SYMMETRIES IN NUCLEAR PHYSICS

Description

The theoretical concepts of a chirally symmetric meson field theory are reviewed and an overview of the most relevant applications in nuclear physics is given. This includes a unified description of the vacuum properties of hadrons, finite nuclei and hot, dense and strange nuclear matter in an extended chiral SU(3)L/SU(3)R σ-ω model.
