A consistent picture is obtained by simply assuming a density dependence of the different mechanisms of resonance broadening and shadowing. The $Δ$-mass shift is found to increase with $A$.7 pages, LaTeX, 2 figures available from the authorsNuclear TheoryDensity dependence of resonance broadening and shadowing effects in nuclear photoabsorptiontext
