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,…
Attention is paid to the production mechanisms of light scalars that reveal their nature. We reveal the chiral shielding of the \sigma(600) meson. We show that the kaon loop mechanism of the \phi radiative decays, ratified by experiment,…
We study SU(3)$_L\timesSU(3)_R$ chiral quark model of mesons up to the next to leading order of $1/N_c$ expansion. Composite vector and axial-vector mesons resonances are introduced via non-linear realization of chiral SU(3) and vector…

In the SU(3) symmetry limit, the ratio $R\equiv\frac{{\cal B}(D^+\to f_0l^+\nu)+ {\cal B}(D^+\to \sigma l^+\nu)}{{\cal B}(D^+\to a_0^0l^+\nu)}$ is equal to 1 if the scalar mesons are $\bar qq$ states, while it is 3 if these mesons are…
We have recently completed the one loop calculation of meson-meson scattering within Chiral Perturbation Theory. Once unitarized, these amplitudes provide simultaneously a remarkable description of the resonance region up to 1.2 GeV as well…
We perform an evaluation of the p-wave amplitudes of meson-baryon scattering in the strangeness S=-1 sector starting from the lowest order chiral Lagrangians and introducing explicitly the Sigma^* field with couplings to the meson-baryon…
The properties of scalar quarks are studied, especially the formation of fermionic mesons with an anti-quark. On the basis of this theoretical investigation together with the experimental data, both from last year and from this year, of the…
A new Hamiltonian model is introduced to study the spectrum of light hadrons. It combines relativistic field theory with elements of the constituent quark model. In addition to the standard linear confining and pseudoscalar meson exchange…
A generalized Lagrangian for the description of hadronic matter based on the linear $SU(3)_L \times SU(3)_R$ $\sigma$-model is proposed. Besides the baryon octet, the spin-0 and spin-1 nonets, a gluon condensate associated with broken scale…
We describe a four-parameter model for non-exotic meson-meson scattering, which accommodates all non-exotic mesons, hence also the light scalar mesons, as resonances and bound states characterised by complex singularities of the scattering…
We discuss the role of the U(1) axial symmetry for the scalar and pseudoscalar meson mass spectrum of QCD at finite temperature, above the chiral transition at T_c, using a chiral effective Lagrangian model, which, in addition to the usual…
An effective meson Lagrangian including a scalar glueball is constructed on the base of $U(3)\times U(3)$ chiral symmetry. The glueball is introduced into the meson Lagrangian by using the principle of scale invariance of an effective…
We calculate the decay rate of light scalar mesons, using a diquark chiral effective theory, recently proposed to describe exotic hadrons. In the effective theory the light scalar mesons are postulated to be bound states of diquark and…

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…
We consider chiral perturbation theory with an explicit broad $\sigma$-meson and study its contribution to the scalar form factors of the pion and the nucleon. Our goal is to learn more about resonance saturation in the scalar sector.
