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 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…

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…

The $K^+$ and $K^0$ meson mass difference induces the mixing of the $a^0_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ resonances, the amplitude of which, between the $K^+K^-$ and $K^0\bar K^0$ thresholds, is large in magnitude, of the order of $…

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…

Using the pole approach we determine the mass and width of the $f_0(980)$; in particular, we analyze the possibility that two nearby poles are associated to it. We restrict our analysis to a neighborhood of the resonance, using $\pi\pi$…

We investigate the $a_0(980)$ resonance within chiral effective field theory through a three-coupled-channel analysis, namely $\pi\eta$, $K\bar{K}$ and $\pi\eta'$. A global fit to recent lattice finite-volume energy levels from $\pi\eta$…

Masses and widths of the four light scalar mesons $\sigma$, $\kappa$, $a_0$(980) and $f_0$(980) may be reproduced in a model where mesons scatter via a $q\bar{q}$ loop. A transition potential is used to couple mesons to $q\bar{q}$ at a…

The results of a recent experiment measuring the reaction pp -> dK^+ \bar K^0 near threshold are interpreted in terms of a spectator model that encapsulates the main features of the observed K^+ \bar K^0 invariant mass distribution. A chi^2…

We study the influence of mass splitting between the charged and neutral pions and kaons in the Juelich meson exchange model for $\pi\pi$ and $\pi\eta$ scattering. The calculations are performed in the particle basis, which permits the use…

Structure of the $a_{0}(980)$ and $f_{0}(980)$ resonances is investigated with the $a_{0}(980)$-$f_{0}(980)$ mixing intensity from the viewpoint of compositeness, which corresponds to the amount of two-body states composing resonances as…

We have conducted a model independent analysis of the $K^+ \bar{K}^0$ pair correlation function obtained from ultra high energy $pp$ collisions, with the aim of extracting the information encoded in it related to the $K\bar{K}$ interaction…

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…

In the paper Phys. Rev. {\bf D83}, 054008 (2011) we constructed the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude $T^0_0$ with regular analytical properties in the $s$ complex plane, describing both experimental data and the results based on chiral…

The analysis of the poles of the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude is shown to favour a dynamical origin of the sigma meson: it is created by a strongly attractive $\pi\pi$ interaction in the $J^{PC}=0^{++}I=0$ channel. In the limit…

Data for phi -> gamma (eta-pizero) are analysed using the KK loop model and compared with parameters of a0(980) derived from Crystal Barrel data. The eta-pi mass spectrum agrees closely and the absolute normalisation lies just within…

The $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude with regular analytical properties in the $s$ complex plane has been constructed. It describes simultaneously the data on the $\pi\pi$ scattering, $\phi\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ decay and $\pi\pi\to K\bar K$…

It is shown that one can fit the available data on the a0(980), f0(980), f0(1300) and K*0(1430) mesons as a distorted 0++ qq bar nonet using very few (5-6) parameters and an improved version of the unitarized quark model. This includes all…

Both sigma and kappa are well established from E791 data on D->3pi and Ds->Kpipi and BES II data on J/Psi -> omega pi pi and KKpipi. These fits are accurately consistent with pipi and Kpi elastic scattering when one allows for the Adler…
