Light scalar hadrons are often understood as dynamically generated resonances. These arise as `companion poles' in the propagators of $q\bar{q}$ seed states when accounting for meson-loop contributions to the self-energies of the latter.…
Light scalar mesons can be understood as dynamically generated resonances. They arise as 'companion poles' in the propagators of quark-antiquark seed states when accounting for hadronic loop contributions to the self-energies of the latter.…
When an unstable ordinary quark-antiquark state couples strongly to other low-mass mesons (such as pions, kaons, $D$-mesons, etc.), the quantum fluctuations generated by the decay products dress the bare `seed' $\bar{q}q$ state and modify…
One type of dynamical generation consists in the formation of multiple hadronic resonances from single seed states by incorporating hadronic loop contributions on the level of $s$-wave propagators. Along this line, we study the propagator…
We study the scalar kaonic states $K_{0}^{\ast}(800)$ and $K_{0}^{\ast}(1430)$ by using a relativistic QFT Lagrangian in which only a single kaonic field corresponding to the well-established scalar state $K_{0}^{\ast}(1430)$ is considered…
We study the light scalar sector up to $1.8$ GeV by using a quantum field theoretical approach which includes a single kaonic state in a Lagrangian with both derivative and non-derivative interactions. By performing a fit to $\pi K$ phase…
The main aim of our study is to understand the nature of some conventional and non-conventional mesonic states by applying effective QFT models. We start from the relativistic Lagrangians containing a unique $q\bar{q}$ seed state which is…
We discuss how the a_0(980), f_0(980), K^*_0(1430) and particularly the broad sigma resonance can be understood within a coupled channel framework, which includes all light two-pseudoscalar thresholds together with constraints from Adler…
The low and approximately equal masses of the scalar mesons $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$, as well as their relatively small decay widths, are impossible to understand in terms of standard $P$-wave quark-antiquark states. Here, these mesons are…
We demonstrate how most of the light $J^{P}=0^{+}$ spectrum below $2.0\,\mathrm{GeV}$ and their decays can be consistently described by the unitarized quark model incorporating the chiral constraints of Adler zeros and taking SU(3) breaking…
Resonance, bound-state, and virtual-state pole positions of the $f_0(500)$ scalar meson are computed as a continuous function of pion mass in the framework of a unitarized and analytic coupled-channel model for scalar mesons, described as…
We investigate the quark content of the scalar meson $a_0(980)$ using lattice QCD. To this end we consider correlation functions of six different two- and four-quark interpolating fields. We evaluate all diagrams, including diagrams, where…
We have studied the interactions of the scalar resonances f_0(980) and a_0(980) with the vector resonance \phi(1020) and with the lightest pseudoscalars \pi, K, \eta and \eta'. We first obtain the interaction kernels without including any…
We study dynamically generated $a_0$ resonances by interactions between vector mesons including their coupling to channels of pseudoscalar mesons within coupled-channel approach. Both vector and pseudoscalar mesons are considered as…
Enormous progress in physics enriched our knowledge about the particles which build matter. Among them there are mesons, to which this thesis is entirely devoted. The overwhelming majority of mesons is made of `conventional' $q\bar{q}$…
We consider the contribution of scalar resonances to hadronic light-by-light scattering in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. While the $f_0(500)$ has already been addressed in previous work using dispersion relations, heavier…
We study the dynamical generation of scalar mesons in the light quark sector ($q\in\{u,d,s\}$) and calculate the masses and widths for the $f_0(500),a_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$. To this end we study the mixing of conventional $q\bar{q}$ and…
We have studied the phi(1020)a0(980) S-wave scattering at threshold energies employing chiral Lagrangians coupled to vector mesons by minimal coupling. The interaction is described without new free parameters by considering the scalar…
Low-energy meson-meson scattering data are a powerful testing ground for quark models. Here, we describe the behaviour at threshold of S-wave scattering-matrix singularities. The majority of the full scattering-matrix mesonic poles stem…
It is shown from a very general model and an analysis of data on the lightest 0++ meson nonet that the f0(980) and f0(1200) resonance poles are two manifestations of the same ss state. Similarily the a0(980) and the a0(1450) are likely to…
