Properties of ρ-meson in symmetric nuclear matter are investigated within a light-front constituent quark model (LFCQM), using the in-medium input calculated by the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model. The LFCQM used here was previously applied in vacuum to calculate the ρ-meson electromagnetic properties, namely, charge G 0 , magnetic G 1 , and quadrupole G 2 form factors, as well as the electromagnetic radius and decay constant. We predict the in-medium modifications of the ρ-meson electromagnetic form factors in symmetric nuclear matter.Keywords Light-front, Constituent quark model, Electromagnetic form factors, ρ-meson, symmetric nuclear matter 1 IntroductionOne of the main objectives in hadronic physics is to understand the hadron structure in terms of the fundamental degrees of freedom in quantum chromodynamics (QCD), i.e, quarks and gluons. The Standard Model (SM) of elementary particles includes QCD as the strong interaction sector. Although solving QCD is an important part for understanding the SM of the particles physics, it is still a very difficult task (see Refs. [1; 2] for QCD details).On the other hand, light-front approach is an alternative to calculate observables with the ingredients from QCD [3]. With light-front quantum field theory, it is possible to describe the lower Fock components of the hadronic bound-state wave functions, i.e, mesons and baryons in terms of quarks and gluons [3; 4; 5; 6; 7; 8].In the present work the previous model for the ρ-meson in vacuum [9; 10; 11] is used to calculate the in-medium electromagnetic observables such as the electromagnetic form factors, charge G 0 , magnetic G 2 , and quadrupole G 2 , as well as the electromagnetic radius and decay constant, using the plus-component of the current J µ applied in symmetric nuclear matter [12]. (For a review of the in-medium properties of hadrons, see e.g., Refs. [13;14].) Next, we present the light-front model of ρ-meson, and briefly review the main ingredients of the model.
