The physics of strongly interacting many-body systems known as nuclear physics is a mature discipline which has achieved a remarkably quantitative success. It has explained with an impressive accuracy the properties of nuclei from the deuteron to heavy nuclei containing several hundreds of nucleons. This is the more remarkable when one realizes that in no way did the success depend on the existence of, or knowledge derived from, the fundamental theory of strong interactions now believed to be quantum chromodynamics (QCD).This monograph is a first, albeit embryonic, attempt to explain how a nucleus can be understood without invoking the explicit degrees of freedom of quarks and gluons while still staying within the basic premise of QCD and furthermore why do quark-gluon signatures not show up prominently in nuclear processes, including those processes involving short-distance encounters within nuclei. Such an understanding is largely based on the modern concepts of broken chiral symmetry and is believed to be essential in uncovering new physics expected to figure in the hadronic environment under extreme conditions of high temperature and/or high density.

This is the sequel to the first volume to treat in one effective field theory framework the physics of strongly interacting matter under extreme conditions. This is vital for understanding the high temperature phenomena taking place in relativistic heavy ion collisions and in the early Universe, as well as the high-density matter predicted to be present in compact stars. The underlying thesis is that what governs hadronic properties in a heat bath and/or a dense medium is hidden local symmetry which emerges from chiral dynamics of light quark systems and from the duality between QCD in 4D and bulk gravity in 5D as in AdS/QCD. Special attention is paid to hot matter relevant for relativistic heavy ion processes and to dense matter relevant for compact stars that are either stable or on the verge of collapse into black holes. Contents: • Multi-Facets of QCD in Matter • Cheshire Cat Phenomenon • Effective Field Theory for Nuclei • Hidden Local Symmetry for Hadrons • Skyrmions • Hidden Local Symmetry in Hot/Dense Medium • Hadrons in the Sliding Vacua of Nuclear Matter • Strangeness in Dense Medium • Dense Matter for Compact Stars • Compact Stars.

Rho, Mannque was born on December 14, 1936 in Hamyang, Kyung Nam, Republic of Korea. Son of Byung-Serk and Nam-Soon (Baick) Rho.
He graduated from Kyunggi High School and started his college study at the political science department of Seoul National University. During his college studies, he attended some lectures about the structure of nuclear by Ben Roy Mottelson and Niels Bohr who were visiting the university at that time.
He has been contributed to theoretical nuclear/hadron physics and suggested Brown-Rho Scaling with Gerald East. Brown which predicts how the masses of the hadrons disappear in hot and dense environments. After that he moved to the United States and entered Clark University. At first he registered for the pre-medical study but later changed his major to chemistry and received his bachelor"s degree in 1960.
He was affected by them and this led him to study hadron physics.
He received his Doctor of Philosophy in nuclear physics from University of California, Berkeley in 1965. He became a professor of the institute and has been there ever since.
He held many inviting positions and has been a visiting professor four times at State University of New York at Stony Brook during 1973 to 1989. He was a professor in School of Physics at of Korea Institute for Advanced Study from 2002 to 2003.
Currently, he is a research professor of theoretical physics, "Expert Senior du Center for Educational Affairs" and scientific counselor at Center for Educational Affairs Saclay, France and also a chair professor of Hanyang University, South of Korea from 2009.
In the early 1970s he started to study the chiral symmetry of Quantum Chromodynamics in nuclear medium. QCD was poorly understood at that time and he explained how chiral symmetry appears in nuclear structure. In 1979 he and Gerald East. Brown implemented chiral symmetry in an effective theory of the nucleon in the form of chiral bag model according to which quarks exist freely in a bag surrounded by a pion cloud.
In 1991 Rho and Brown derived a scaling property of hadrons in hot and dense medium, now known as Brown-Rho scaling which predicted how the masses of the hadrons disappear in hot (early universe) and dense (neutron star) environments.
The BR scaling has been tested experimentally in several electro-weak processes involving heavy nuclei. lieutenant has explained the European Organization of Nuclear Research heavy-ion experiments on dilepton production and is expected to explain some features from the experiments at RHIC. Foreign the astro-hadron physics, it has possibilities to explain the supernovae explosions and the structure of compact stars.
Rho is currently working on superdense hadronic QCD properties and astro-hadron physics.
