Scalar-isoscalar mesons are studied using an unitary model in three channels: pi-pi, K-anti K and an effective 2pi-2pi. All the solutions, fitted to the pi-pi and K-anti K data, exhibit a wide f0(500), a narrow f0(980) and two relatively…
Recently BES at BEPC found evidence for the existence of the $\sigma$ meson in the process of $J/\Psi \to \sigma\omega \to\pi\pi\omega$. In this paper we firstly discuss the relevant coupling $g_{\sigma\pi\pi}$ and show that the linear…
The renormalizable Kroll-Lee-Zumino field theory of pions and a neutral rho-meson is used to determine the scalar form factor of the pion in the space-like region at next-to-leading order. Perturbative calculations in this framework are…
Holographic QCD provides a unique framework in which to compute QCD observables. In this talk we summarize recent numerical work on computing the pion electromagnetic form factor using an AdS/QCD action that includes both spontaneous and…
We use the recently measured accurate BaBaR data on the modulus of the pion electromagnetic form factor, $F_\pi(t)$, up to an energy of 3 GeV, the I=1 $P$-wave phase of the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude up to the $\omega-\pi$ threshold, the…
We consider the first pion excitation as a sub-continuum resonance in the pseudoscalar channel, and we obtain parameters characterizing this resonance through a global fit of the Borel-parameter dependence of the field-theoretical…
We present our recent results for the rho and sigma mesons considered as resonances in pion-pion scattering in a thermal bath. We use chiral perturbation theory to fourth order in p for the low energy behaviour, then extend the analysis via…
We show that the non-strange scalar $\sigma$ meson, as now reported in the 1996 PDG tables, is a natural consequence of crossing symmetry as well as chiral dynamics for both strong interaction low energy $\pi\pi$ scattering and also $K \to…
We use a nonpertubative approach which combines coupled channel Lippmann Schwinger equations with meson-meson potentials provided by the lowest order chiral Lagrangian. By means of one parameter, a cut off in the momentum of the loop…
The scalar mesons $\sigma(600)$, $\kappa(800)$, $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ together with the pseudo Goldstone bosons $\pi$, $K$, and $\eta$ may be considered as the Higgs sector of strong interaction. After a long time of uncertainty about…
We evaluate the two pion decay of the Roper resonance in a model where explicit re-scattering of the two final pions is accounted for by the use of unitarized chiral perturbation theory. Our model does not include an explicit $\epsilon$ or…
The weak two-pion form factor $F_V^{\pi\pi}$ is described as the product of a weak kernel $\cal{K}_W$ by a strong function $\Theta_{\pi\pi}^P$, determined directly from $\pi\pi$ scattering data. As the latter accounts at once for all…
We present theoretical results for $(\gamma, \pi^0 \pi^0)$ production on nucleons and nuclei in the kinematical region where the scalar isoscalar $\pi \pi$ amplitude is influenced by the $\sigma$ pole. The final state interaction of the…
Light meson ( $\pi,\ \sigma,\ a_0$) properties in the environment with chiral imbalance are analyzed with the help of meson effective Lagrangian associated with QCD. New spatial parity violating decays of scalar mesons arise as a result of…
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 data on the form factors of the $K_{e4}$ decay permit to fix a value of the non-specified in the theory parameter entering in the lagrangian of the system of $0^+$ and $0^-$ mesons . Then, for a mass of the lightest $\sigma$-meson we…

A prediction for the contributions of chiral loops and the L$\sigma$M model to the radiative $\phi\to\pi^0\eta\gamma$ decay mode is presented. The L$\sigma$M is used as an appropriate framework for describing the pole effects of the…
Combining large $N_C$ techniques and partial wave dispersion theory to analyze the $\pi\pi$ scattering, without relying on any explicit resonance lagrangian, some interesting results are derived: (a) a general KSRF relation including the…
We obtain reliable $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitudes consistent with experimental data, both at low and high energies, and fulfilling appropriate analyticity properties. We do this by first fitting experimental low energy ($s^{1/2}\leq1.42…
