We discuss the hadronic molecule issue in the light and heavy meson sector. Thereby we use the radiative decays of the scalars f0(980) and a0(980) to study its possible molecular K barK structure. Further on we extend our formalism to…
We study the spectral functions, the poles and their trajectories for increasing $N_{c}$ of the vector kaon state $K^{\ast}(892),$ characterized by $I(J^{P})=\frac{1}{2}(1^{-})$, and of the scalar kaons $K_{0}^{\ast}(800)$ and…
We study basic properties of scalar hadronic resonances within a quantum field theoretical toy model. In particular, we focus on the spectral function, the mass and the decay width of the resonance $f_{0}(500)$. In this work, this meson is…
In the framework of a simple quantum field theory describing the decay of a scalar state into two (pseudo)scalar ones we study the pole(s) motion(s) of its propagator: besides the expected pole on the second Riemann sheet, we find -- for a…
Hadronic resonance propagators which take into account the analytical properties of decay processes are built in terms of the dispersion relation technique. Such propagators can describe multi-component systems, for example, those when…
We present lattice results for the a_0(980) state using a variational approach with a variety of creation operators: quark-antiquark, mesonic molecule, diquark-antidiquark as well as two-meson type. Focus is put on recent technical…
After a short review of the production mechanisms of the light scalars which reveal their nature and indicate their quark structure, we suggest to study the mixing of the isovector a^0_0(980) with the isoscalar f_0(980) in spin effects.
We discuss how the lightest scalars, in particular the broad sigma resonance, can be understood as unitarized (qbar q) states within a unitarized quark model (UQM). The bare (qbar q) scalars are strongly distorted by hadronic mass shifts,…
In this work we study basic properties of unstable particles and scalar hadronic resonances, respectively, within simple quantum mechanical and quantum field theoretical (effective) models. We start with the basic ideas of quantum field…
We review our recent dispersive and model independent determination of the lightest two scalars, in terms of poles and residues - or mass, width and coupling- by means of once and twice subtracted Roy equations, using as input constrained…
Third QED order hadronic light-by-light (LBL) contributions $a_\mu^{LBL}(M)$ to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $a_\mu^{had}$ from the pole terms of scalar $\sigma$, $a_0(980)$ and pseudoscalar $\pi^0$, $\eta$, $\eta '$ mesons (M)…
We estimate the di-photon coupling of $f_0(600)$, $f_0(980)$ and $f_2(1270)$ resonances in a coupled channel dispersive approach. The $f_0(600)$ di-photon coupling is also reinvestigated using a single channel $T$ matrix for $\pi\pi$…
A decade ago, BES Collaboration reported the discovery of a new scalar isosinglet resonance denoted as $f_0(1790)$. The finding was subsequently confirmed by LHCb. Recently, the existence of the corresponding isotriplet state -- the…
Some recent developments in chiral dynamics of hadrons and hadrons in a medium are presented. Unitary schemes based on chiral Lagrangians describe some hadronic states as being dynamically generated resonances. We discuss how standard…
We use our latest dispersive analysis of pion-pion scattering data and the very recent Kl4 experimental results to obtain the mass, width and couplings of the two lightest scalar-isoscalar resonances. These parameters are defined from their…
Using ideas underlying the flavour-blind "Nijmegen Unitarised Meson Model" we try to understand on the basis of a system of Schroedinger equations with one meson-meson and one (spinless) quark-antiquark channel coupled by a simple…
In the chiral unitary approach, we have studied the single Cabibbo-suppressed decays $\Lambda_c\to pK^+K^-$ and $\Lambda_c \to p \pi^+\pi^-$ by taking into account the $s$-wave meson-meson interaction as well as the contributions from the…
Ascribed as $\rho\rho$ and $K^* \bar{K}^*$ molecular states, respectively, iso-scalar $f_0(1500)$ and $f_0(1710)$ states are expected to have iso-vector partners, potentially identified as $a_0(1450)$ and $a_0(1710)$. The predicted dominant…
We introduce an effective lagrangian including negative and positive parity heavy mesons containing a heavy quark, light pseudoscalars, and light vector resonances, with their allowed interactions, using heavy quark spin-flavour symmetry,…
In this talk I summarize recent findings around the description of axial vector mesons as dynamically generated states from the interaction of pseudoscalar mesons and vector mesons, dedicating some attention to the two $K_1(1270)$ states.…
