Abstract:
We investigate medium modifications of the pentaquark Θ+\Theta^+ in dense medium, taking into account different parities of the exotic Θ+\Theta^+ baryon. We find that the chemical potential of the Θ+\Theta^+ is shifted in a density-dependent way to one-loop order. We also investigated the effect of the scaled nucleon mass in dense medium on the Θ+\Theta^+ propagator. The results turn out to depend sensitively on the scaled nucleon mass and on the parity of the Θ+\Theta^+.
