In-medium Properties of $\Theta^{+}$ as a K$\pi$N structure in   Relativistic Mean Field Theory
  The properties of nuclear matter are discussed with the relativistic mean-field theory (RMF).Then, we use two models in studying the in-medium properties of $\Theta^+$: one is the point-like $\Theta^*$ in the usual RMF and the other is a K$\pi$N structure for the pentaquark. It is found that the in-medium properties of $\Theta^+$ are dramatically modified by its internal structure. The effective mass of $\Theta^+$ in medium is, at normal nuclear density, about 1030 MeV in the point-like model, while it is about 1120 MeV in the model of K$\pi$N pentaquark. The nuclear potential depth of $\Theta^+$ in the K$\pi$N model is approximately -37.5 MeV, much shallower than -90 MeV in the usual point-like RMF model.
