Scientific paper

The formalism developed earlier by us for the propagation of a resonance in the nuclear medium in proton-nucleus collisions has been modified to the case of vector boson production in heavy-ion collisions. The first part of the talk describes this formalism. The formalism includes coherently the contribution to the observed di-lepton production from the decay of a vector boson inside as well as outside the nuclear medium. The calculated invariant rho mass distributions are presented for the $\rho $-meson production using optical potentials estimated within the VDM and the resonance model. In the second part of the talk we write a formalism for coherent rho production in proton nucleus collisions and explore the sensitivity of the (p,p$^\prime \rho ^0$) reaction cross section to medium mass modification of the rho meson.
