DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Celso Franco (LIP-Lisbon)\nThe HADES experiment at G
 SI was designed to investigate the properties of hadrons inside dense nuc
 lear matter. The latter is created by heavy-ion collisions at energies of 
 1–-2 AGeV. Currently\, HADES is the only running experiment that studie
 s the region in the QCD phase diagram of very high net-baryon densities an
 d moderate temperatures. The created state of matter\, in fact\, resemble
 s matter created during merger of neutron stars with particular configurat
 ion. While the gravitational waves emitted by such events are expected to
  tightly constrain the equation of state of nuclear matter\, HADES has the
   potential of providing a deeper understanding about the microscopic pro
 perties of such matter due to an improved modeling of heavy heavy-ion coll
 isions. One of the goals is to improve the knowledge about the generation 
 of hadronic masses. At three times normal nuclear matter density the quar
 k antiquark condensates\, which are an order parameter of chiral symmetry 
 restoration\, are partially depleted and\, therefore\, HADES is able to p
 rovide crucial information by investigating the in-medium properties of ha
 drons. One of the best probes that one can use to investigate a strongly i
 nteracting baryon-rich medium are the dileptons emerging from virtual phot
 on decays. Since electromagnetic probes decouple from the dense interacti
 on region once they are produced\, their phase space distributions carry 
 information about the temperature and structure of the dense QCD medium. 
 Hadrons carrying strangeness are valuable messengers as well\, because at 
 1-–2  AGeV their production threshold is above the energy available in 
 a single N+N collision. This means that additional energy is provided by t
 he medium and\, therefore\, strange hadrons are also good probes of the in
 -medium properties. Both the dilepton and strangeness results from the HA
 DES Au+Au data at 1.23 AGeV will be presented.\n\nhttps://indico.tlabs.ac.
