  A light-front treatment for the scalar and vector meson momentum distribution
functions is developed using a model in which the nucleus is treated a static
source of radius $R$. The limit $R\to \infty$ corresponds to infinite nuclear
matter. In this limit, the scalar mesons are shown to carry a vanishing
momentum fraction of the nuclear plus momentum $k^+$, but the vector mesons
carry a significant fraction, all occuring at the experimentally inaccessible
value of $k^+=0$. This confirms earlier work. A study of the $R$ dependence for
sizes of real nuclei shows that a fraction of the scalar and vector mesons
could be observable.
