Scattering and production amplitudes involving scalar resonances are known, according to Watson's theorem, to share the same phase $\delta(s)$. We show that, at low energies, the production amplitude is fully determined by the combination…

Unitarity is the fundamental property of the S-matrix while its usage for a scattering of unstable particles has been subtle as unstable particles do not appear in the asymptotic states. Defining unstable-particle amplitudes as residues of…
The importance of $S$-matrix unitarity in realistic meson spectroscopy is reviewed, both its historical development and more recent applications. First the effects of imposing $S$-matrix unitarity on meson resonances is demonstrated in both…
