  "abstract": "We present an extensive analysis of the in-medium masses and decay constants of the $B_s^*(5415)$ and $B^*(5325)$ multiplets, including both particles and antiparticles, using QCD sum rules at finite temperature and density. The OPE incorporates the full temperature- and density-dependent contributions from the quark, gluon, and mixed condensates. Computing the strange ($B_s^{*0}$, $\\bar{B}_s^{*0}$), charged ($B^{*\\pm}$), and neutral ($B^{*0}$, $\\bar{B}^{*0}$) doublet properties allows us to study the effects of flavor symmetry breaking, strangeness, and heavy-quark decoupling on the beauty vector mesons in the medium. Our results indicate that the mass is remarkably resistant to the medium across the entire multiplet: no state loses more than $\\sim 13\\%$ of its vacuum value, even at $T = T_c$ and $n = 5n_0$, the extreme conditions explored here. The decay constant is far more sensitive, losing up to $\\sim 78\\%$ at the same point. Baryon density clearly dominates the medium response, while temperature plays a secondary role until the system approaches the deconfinement crossover. At zero density, every state loses almost the same fraction of its mass and decay constant: mass shifts lie between $-(0.5$-$1.1)\\%$ and decay-constant shifts between $-(3.9$-$5.3)\\%$, regardless of charge or flavor, so temperature alone does not distinguish a particle from its antiparticle. At finite baryon density, a clear particle-antiparticle asymmetry emerges: at $T = 0$ and $n = 5n_0$, the $\\bar{B}^{*0}$ mass decreases by $12.9\\%$, whereas the $B^{*0}$ mass shifts by only $6.1\\%$, a gap of nearly seven percentage points driven entirely by the vector self-energy. This provides a theoretical basis for the future heavy-ion collision program at RHIC, LHC, FAIR, and NICA.",
