Using the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, we investigate theoretically whether η and ω mesons form meson-nucleus bound states. We study several nuclei from 6He to 208Pb, including those which are the final nuclei in the proposed experiment at GSI. Results for the ω are compared with those of the Walecka model. Our results suggest that one should expect to find η- and ω-nucleus bound states in all these nuclei. Furthermore, we investigate the possibility of charmed mesic nuclei. It is shown that the D- meson will inevitably form narrow bound states with 208Pb.
