Περίληψη: We will in these proceedings review recent progress made in the study of numerically simulating proton-nucleus (pA) collisions in a transport approach, with the purpose of elucidating the behavior of the ϕ meson in nuclear matter. Specifically, we will focus on 12 GeV and 30 GeV pA collisions, which correspond to the KEK E325 and J-PARC E16/E88 experiments, respectively, and study both e + e − and K + K − decay channels of the ϕ meson, each of which has its advantages and disadvantages in extracting the in-medium ϕ meson behavior. We will also give a brief overview on other recent activities of the field related to the ϕ N interaction and the role of the spin degree of freedom in its behavior in nuclear matter.
