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…
The mass and width of the a0(980) have been independently determined from a nearly background free data sample and the coupling constants to the eta-pi and K-K-bar modes have been determined
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…
When a resonance lies near the threshold of a heavier channel, an interesting feature can occur. The paradigmatic example employed here is the scalar isoscalar $f_0(980)$ resonance that couples to the lighter $\pi\pi$ and heavier $K\bar{K}$…
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 study the weight or compositeness of the $\pi\pi$-$K\bar{K}$ and $\pi\eta$-$K\bar{K}$ in the composition of the $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ resonances, respectively. Either we use the saturation of the total width and compositeness, or we…
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 $\pi\pi$…
We analyze $\pi\pi-K\bar{K}$ and $\pi\eta-K\bar{K}$ couple channel [1,1] matrix Pad\'e amplitudes of $SU(3)\times SU(3)$ chiral perturbation theory. By fitting phase shift and inelasticity data, we determine pole positions in different…
A study of three-pseudoscalar $\pi K \bar{K}$ and $\pi \pi \eta$ coupled system is made by solving the Faddeev equations within an approach based on unitary chiral dynamics. A resonance with total isospin one and spin-parity $J^\pi = 0^-$…
We consider the phenomenological description of the two pion invariant mass spectrum in the $V' \to V \pi\pi$ decays. We study the parametrization of the amplitude involving both $S$ and $D$ wave contributions. From a fit to the two pion…
We investigate the structure of the scalar mesons $f_0(975)$ and $a_0(980)$ within realistic meson-exchange models of the $\pi\pi$ and $\pi\eta$ interactions. Starting from a modified version of the J\"ulich model for $\pi\pi$ scattering we…
The Belle Collaboration results on the observation of the $f_0(980)$ resonance in the reaction $\gamma\gamma\to\pi^+\pi^-$ are analyzed. It is argued that they point to the presence of mechanisms which give rise to a strong distortion of…
Systematic and careful studies are made on the properties of the IJ=00 $\pi\pi$ and $K\bar K$ coupled-channel system, using newly derived dispersion relations between the phase shifts and poles and cuts. The effects of nearby branch point…
Using dispersion relation technique and experimental data, a coupled channel analysis on $\gamma\gamma\to\pi\pi$ process is made. Di-photon coupling of $f_0(600)$ and $f_0(980)$ resonances are extracted and their dynamical properties are…
In a previous paper (Commun. Theor. Phys. 57 (2012) 841), we proposed a method to distinguish poles of different dynamical origin, in a unitarized amplitude of $\pi\pi\, K\bar K$ system. That is based on the observation that `A Breit-Wigner…
We discuss a possible interpretation of the f0(980) meson as a hadronic molecule - a bound state of K and bar K mesons. Using a phenomenological Lagrangian approach we calculate the strong f0(980) to pi pi and electromagnetic f0(980) to…
A guide to the composition of the enigmatic f_0(980) and a_0(980) states is their formation in phi-radiative decays. Precision data are becoming available from the KLOE experiment at the DAPHNE machine at Frascati, as well as results from…
We systematically reconsider, within an improved "analytic K-matrix model", the extraction of the sigma = f_0(600) and f_0(980) masses, widths and hadronic couplings using new Ke4 = K-->pi-pi e nu_e data on pi-pi phase shift below 390 MeV…
Studies on the IJ=00 $\pi\pi$ and $K\bar K$ coupled--channel system are made using newly derived dispersion relations between the phase shifts and poles and cuts. It is found that the $\sigma$ resonance must be introduced to explain the…
