We examine the D_s -> f_0(980) pi amplitude through a constituent quark-meson model, incorporating heavy quark and chiral symmetries, finding a good agreement with the recent E791 data analysis of D_s -> 3pi via f_0(980). The f_0(980)…
Hadronic contributions dominate the uncertainty of the standard model prediction for the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. In this work, we describe an ongoing lattice calculation of the hadronic light-by-light contribution, performed…
We develop a scheme for the extraction of the properties of the scalar mesons f0(600), f0(980), and a0(980) from lattice QCD data. This scheme is based on a two-channel chiral unitary approach with fully relativistic propagators in a finite…
We use the QCD instanton vacuum model to discuss the emergence of the light scalar and vector mesons on the light front. We take into account both the instanton and anti-instanton single and molecular interactions on the light quarks, in…
We show how to obtain information about the states of an effective field theory in terms of the underlying fundamental theory. In particular we analyze the spectroscopic nature of meson resonances from the meson-meson scattering amplitudes…
We study the thermal properties of the lowest multiplet of the QCD light-flavor scalar resonances, including the $f_0(500)/\sigma$, $K_{0}^{*}(700)/\kappa$, $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$, in the framework of unitarized $U(3)$ chiral…
We have conducted a model independent analysis of the $K^+ \bar{K}^0$ pair correlation function obtained from ultra high energy $pp$ collisions, with the aim of extracting the information encoded in it related to the $K\bar{K}$ interaction…
Motivated by the resent BESIII Collaboration measurements of the process $D^+\to\pi^+\eta\eta$, we investigate this process by considering the contribution from the resonance $a_0(980)$, which is generated by $S$-wave pseudoscalar…
In this paper, we explore the signature of a simplified model which includes a new singlet scalar state and a vector like quark at future lepton colliders. In particular, we study the production of the new singlet scalar in association with…
We describe the behaviour at threshold of S-wave poles of the scattering matrix within a four-parameter model for non-exotic meson-meson scattering. This model accommodates all non-exotic mesons, hence also the light scalar mesons, as…
The positive-parity nucleon spectrum is studied in 2 + 1 flavour lattice QCD in an attempt to discover novel low-lying energy eigenstates in the region of the Roper resonance. In this work, we employ standard three-quark interpolating…
Outline: 1. Introduction, 2. Confinement, chiral dynamics and light scalar mesons, 3. Chiral shielding of \sigma(600), chiral constraints, \sigma(600), f_0(980) and their mixing in \pi\pi\to\pi\pi, \pi\pi\to K\bar K, and…
We study the a0 and sigma mesons with the overlap fermion in the chiral regime with the pion mass as low as 182 MeV in the quenched approximation. After the eta'pi ghost states are separated, we find that the a0 mass with q\bar{q}…
The Lambda(1405) resonance is studied by a chiral unitary approach, in which the resonance is dynamically generated in coupled-channel meson-baryon scattering. Investigating the analytic structure of the scattering amplitudes obtained by…
We discuss baryon resonances which are dynamically generated in hadron dynamics based on chiral coupled channels approach. With the dynamical description of the baryon resonance, we discuss the origin of the resonance pole, finding that for…
The decays of a light scalar meson into a vector meson and a photon ($S\to V\gamma)$ are evaluated in the tetraquark and quarkonium assignments of the scalar states. A link with the radiative decays $\phi\to S\gamma$ is established:…
We study the $\gamma p \to p f_0$ [$f_0(980)$ and $f_0(1500)$] reaction close to threshold within an effective Lagrangian approach. The production process is described by $s$-channel nucleon pole or $t$-channel $\rho$ and $\omega$ exchange.…
Preliminary results from simulations with 2+1 dynamical quark flavors at a lattice spacing of 0.09 fm are combined with earlier results at a=0.13 fm. We examine the approach to the continuum limit and investigate the dependence of the…
A coupled channel model is used to study the nature of the f0(980) resonance. It is shown that the existence of two poles close to KKbar threshold, as found in many data fits and confirmed here, can be reconciled with the KKbar molecular…
We propose a novel approach to construction of hadron spectroscopy. The case of light nonstrange mesons is considered. By assumption, all such mesons above 1 GeV appear due to creation of constituent quark-antiquark pairs inside the pi or…
