Abstract
A multichannel description of the light scalar mesons in the framework of the Resonance-Spectrum Expansion is generalised by including vector-vector and scalar-scalar channels, besides the usual pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar channels. Experimental data for the isoscalar, isodoublet and isovector cases are fitted up to energies well above 1 GeV. The resulting pole positions of the light and intermediate scalar mesons are compared to the listed resonances. Possible further improvements are discussed.
