The mass of the {eta} meson is theoretically expected to be reduced at finite density, which indicates the existence of {eta}-nucleus bound states. To investigate these states, we perform missing-mass spectroscopy for the (p, d) reaction near the {eta} production threshold. The overview of the experimental situation is given and the current status is discussed.

The possible existence of eta-nucleus bound states has been put forward through theoretical and experimental studies. It is strongly related to the eta mass at finite density, which is expected to be reduced because of the interplay between the $U_A(
1)$ anomaly and partial restoration of chiral symmetry. The investigation of the C(p,d) reaction at GSI and FAIR, as well as an overview of the experimental program at GSI and future plans at FAIR are discussed.
We calculate theoretically the formation spectra of eta(958)-nucleus systems in the (p,d) reaction for the investigation of the in-medium modification of the eta mass. We show the comprehensive numerical calculations based on a simple form of the eta
optical potential in nuclei with various potential depths. We conclude that one finds an evidence of possible attractive interaction between eta and nucleus as peak structure appearing around the eta threshold in light nuclei such as 11C when the attractive potential is stronger than 100 MeV and the absorption width is of order of 40 MeV or less. Spectroscopy of the (p,d) reaction is expected to be performed experimentally at existing facilities, such as GSI. We also estimate the contributions from the omega and phi mesons, which have masses close to the eta meson, concluding that the observation of the peak structure of the eta-mesic nuclei is not disturbed although their contributions may not be small.
Recent experiments studying the meson-nucleus interaction to extract meson-nucleus potentials are reviewed. The real part of the potentials quantifies whether the interaction is attractive or repulsive while the imaginary part describes the meson abs
orption in nuclei. The review is focused on mesons which are sufficiently long-lived to potentially form meson-nucleus quasi-bound states. The presentation is confined to meson production off nuclei in photon-, pion-, proton-, and light-ion induced reactions and heavy-ion collisions at energies near the production threshold. Tools to extract the potential parameters are presented. In most cases, the real part of the potential is determined by comparing measured meson momentum distributions or excitation functions with collision model or transport model calculations. The imaginary part is extracted from transparency ratio measurements. Results on $K^+, K^0, K^-, eta, eta^prime, omega$, and $phi$ mesons are presented and compared with theoretical predictions. The interaction of $K^+$ and $K^0$ mesons with nuclei is found to be weakly repulsive, while the $K^-, eta,eta^prime, omega$ and $phi$ meson-nucleus potentials are attractive, however, with widely different strengths. Because of meson absorption in the nuclear medium the imaginary parts of the meson-nucleus potentials are all negative, again with a large spread. An outlook on planned experiments in the charm sector is given. In view of the determined potential parameters, the criteria and chances for experimentally observing meson-nucleus quasi-bound states are discussed. The most promising candidates appear to be the $eta$ and $eta^prime$ mesons.
A novel method is proposed to measure eta(958) meson bound states in 11C nuclei by missing mass spectroscopy of the 12C(p,d) reaction near the eta production threshold. It is shown that peak structures will be observed experimentally in an inclusive
measurement in case that the in-medium eta mass reduction is sufficiently large and that the decay width of eta mesic states is narrow enough. Such a measurement will be feasible with the intense proton beam supplied by the SIS synchrotron at GSI combined with the good energy resolution of the fragment separator FRS.
We comment on a recent paper by the LEPS2/BGOegg Collaboration [Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 202501 (2020), arXiv:2005.03449].
