We argue that the low-lying scalar-meson nonet makes part of a subset of a family of infinitely many scalar-meson nonets, which in turn makes part of a family of infinitely many quark-antiquark bound states and resonances. We outline the…
The $a_0^0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing is one of the most potential tools to learn about the nature of $a_0^0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$. Using the $f_0(980)$-$a_0^0(980)$ mixing intensity $\xi_{af}$ measured recently at BESIII, we calculate the the…
The \sigma(600) and \kappa(900), observed in the phase shift analyses, satisfy rather well the mass and width relation predicted by the SU(3)LsM and the SU(3)LsM with the vector and axial-vector meson nonets, and deserve to be the members…
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.…
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…
Using 7.93 ${\rm fb^{-1}}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 ${\rm GeV}$ with the BESIII detector, we present an analysis of the decay $D^{0} \to \eta \pi^- e^+ \nu_{e}$. The branching fraction of the…
We suggest a description of the beam asymmetry in $p \bar p$ and $\Lambda \bar \Lambda$ photoproduction off the proton $\vec\gamma + p \to p \bar p + p$ and $\vec\gamma + p \to \Lambda \bar\Lambda + p$, takes into account the contribution…
Possible manifestations of the isospin-breaking mixing of the $a^0_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ resonances are analyzed in the $D^0\to K^0_S \pi^+\pi^-$ and $D^0\to K^0_S\eta\pi^0$ decays. It is shown that the $a^0_0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing has the…
Based on the recent proposal for the tetraquarks with the mixing scheme, we investigate fall-apart decays of $a_0(980), a_0(1450)$ into two lowest-lying mesons. This mixing scheme suggests that $a_0(980)$ and $a_0(1450)$ are the tetraquarks…
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}…
We study the possible bound states of the $K\bar K$ system in the Bethe-Salpeter formalism in the ladder and instantaneous approximations. We find that the bound states exist. However, these bound states have very small decay widths.…
The phi(1020) radiative decays form a good playground for study of the low-lying a0(980) and f0(980) scalar mesons. The complicated interplay of kaon loop mechanism, isoscalar meson mixing and momentum dependence of the effective couplings…
Despite the apparent simplicity of meson spectroscopy, light scalar mesons cannot be accommodated in the usual $q\bar q$ structure. We study the description of the scalar mesons below 2 GeV in terms of the mixing of a chiral nonet of…
Two charm-strange mesons, the $D_{s1}^*(2710)$ and the $D_{sJ}^*(2860)$, have recently been observed by several experiments. There has been speculation in the literature that the $D_{s1}^*(2710)$ is the $2^3S_1(c\bar{s})$ state and the…
The combined 3-channel analysis of experimental data on the coupled processes $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi,K\bar{K},\eta\eta$ is carried out in the channel with the vacuum quantum numbers. An approach, using only first principles (analyticity and…
We discuss the effect of the instanton induced, six-fermion effective Lagrangian on the decays of the lightest scalar mesons in the diquark--antidiquark picture. This addition allows for a remarkably good description of light scalar meson…
We propose to study the multiparticle configurations of isovector scalar mesons, saying $a_0(980)$ and $a_0(1450)$, in the charmless three-body $B$ decays by considering the width effects. Two scenarios of $a_0$ configurations are assumed,…
In this talk, we present successful aspects of the tetraquark mixing model for the two light-meson nonets in the $J^{PC} = 0^{++}$ channel, the light nonet [$a_0(980)$, $K_0^*(700)$, $f_0(500)$, $f_0(980)$] and the heavy nonet [$a_0(1450)$,…
The complementarity between Chiral Perturbation Theory and the Linear Sigma Model is exploited to study $\pi^0\pi^0$ production in $\phi$ radiative decays, where the effects of the $f_0(980)$ scalar resonance, and those of its more…
The strong decays of the $5^1S_0$ $q\bar{q}$ states are evaluated in the $^3P_0$ model with two types of space wave functions. Comparing the model expectations with the experimental data for the $\pi(2360)$, $\eta(2320)$, $X(2370)$, and…
