The recent experimental data of both pipi / Kpi scattering and production processes, suggesting the existence of scalar sigma and kappa mesons, are reviewed. In many pipi /Kpi production processes the direct effects of their productions are…

We set up a general framework to describe $\pi\pi$ scattering below 1 GeV based on chiral low-energy expansion with possible spin-0 and 1 resonances. Partial wave amplitudes are obtained with the $N/D$ method, which satisfy unitarity,…
The results of the recent experiments on the reaction $\pi^-p\to\pi^0\pi^0n$ performed at KEK, BNL, IHEP, and CERN are analyzed in detail. For the I=0 $\pi\pi$ S wave phase shift $\delta^0_0$ and inelasticity $\eta^0_0$ a new set of data is…

Recently we obtained the evidence for the existence of sigma(600) meson, which had been sought but missing for a long time, by reanalyzing the I=0 S-wave pi pi scattering phase shift. The sigma-existence was also suggested through the…
The phase variation of the sigma -> pi-pi amplitude is accurately determined as a function of mass from BES II data for J/Psi -> omega-pi-pi. The determination arises from interference with the strong b1(1235)-pi amplitude. The observed…
We present a new and improved model independent amplitude analysis of reactions $\pi^+ n_\uparrow \to \pi^+ \pi^- p$ at 5.98 and 11.85 GeV/c and $\pi^- p_\uparrow \to \pi^- \pi^+ n$ at 17.2 GeV/c measured with transversely polarized targets…
A study of the $\pi^0\pi^0$ system produced in charge exchange $\pi^-p$ collisions at 38 and 100 GeV/c and in central $pp$ interactions at 450 GeV/c has been carried out. The $S$ wave has rather a complicated structure in both processes…

Our method of analysis, which led to existence of sigma and kappa mesons, is reviewed and examined from a viewpoint of general S-matrix. It is shown that the method is consistent with the constraints from chiral symmetry and unitarity.…

In this talk I summarize recently proposed mechanisms to understand pi pi scattering to 1 GeV in an effective chiral Lagrangian. The Lagrangian includes higher resonances in addition to pions consistently with the chiral symmetry. Iso-spin…
The experimental isoscalar $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi$ S-wave amplitude squared below 1.75 GeV is characterized by a very broad structure $f_0(400-1200)$ with two narrow dips due to its destructive interference with the $f_0(980)$ and $f_0(1500)$.…
