Description
The status of recent theoretical and experimental research related to the properties of the phi meson in nuclear matter is reviewed, focusing on observables that were/will be measured at the KEK E325, J-PARC E16 and J-PARC E88 experiments, including dilepton and K^+K^- decay modes and their angular distributions. The relation of these observables to fundamental properties of nuclear matter, such as chiral symmetry, its partial restauration in nuclear matter, in-medium Lorentz and charge symmetry violation and the resultant modification of hadronic dispersion relations, will also be discussed.
