Chiral dynamics of hadrons in nuclei

Abstract

In this talk I report on selected topics of hadron modification in the nuclear medium using the chiral unitary approach to describe the dynamics of the problems. I shall mention how antikaons, $\eta$, and $\varphi$ are modified in the medium and will report upon different experiments done or planned to measure the $\varphi$ width in the medium.
