Abstract

We demonstrate how most of the light JP=0+J^{P}=0^{+} spectrum below 2.0GeV2.0\,\mathrm{GeV} and their decays can be consistently described by the unitarized quark model incorporating the chiral constraints of Adler zeros and taking SU(3) breaking effects into account. These resonances appear as poles in the complex ss plane in a unified picture as qqˉq\bar{q} states strongly dressed by hadron loops. Through the large NcN_c analysis, these resonances are found to naturally separate into two kinds: σ,κ,f0(980),a0(980)\sigma, \kappa, f_0(980), a_0(980) are dynamically generated and run away from the real axis as NcN_c increases, while the others move towards the qqˉq\bar q seeds. In this picture, the line shape of a0(980)a_0(980) is produced by a broad pole below the KKˉK\bar{K} threshold, and exhibits characteristics similar to the σ\sigma and κ\kappa.
