Within a nonlinear chiral Lagrangian framework the correlations between the quark and glueball admixtures of the isosinglet scalar mesons below 2 GeV and the current large uncertainties on the mass of the f0(600) and the f0(1370) are…

We analyze the electromagnetic and strong decay properties of the light scalars a0(980) and f0(980) within a hadronic molecule interpretation. Both scalars are discussed within a covariant and gauge invariant model which also allows for…

The applicability of the quasi-static approximation for calculating the two-photon annihilation rate of the scalar f_0(980) meson envisaged as a K\bar K molecule is critically re-examined. It is shown that the validity of this approximation…

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…

The structure of the light scalar mesons is elucidated by the investigation of the S-matrix poles and the q-qbar spectral density in a coupled channel model that includes pi-pi, K-Kbar and q-qbar channels. It is shown that the dynamical…

We discuss the recent observation of f_0(980) in charmless B-decays and in gluon jets which hints toward a gluonic coupling of this meson similar to eta'. Further predictions on B-decays into scalar particles are presented. Charmless B…

This contribution reviews recent progress in the low-lying scalar mesons and glueballs. We propose a new classification for the scalar nonet that includes $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ as the lowest states, while we identify $f_0(1500)$ as a…

We describe a four-parameter model for non-exotic meson-meson scattering, which accommodates all non-exotic mesons, hence also the light scalar mesons, as resonances and bound states characterised by complex singularities of the scattering…

Recent work suggests the existence of a non-conventional lowest-lying scalar nonet containing the a0(980). Then the a0(1450) and also the K0*(1430) are likely candidates to belong to a conventional p-wave $q \bar q$ nonet. However a…

We examine the D_s -> f_0(980) pi amplitude through a constituent quark-meson model, incorporating heavy quark and chiral symmetries, finding a good agreement with the recent E791 data analysis of D_s -> 3pi via f_0(980). The f_0(980)…

The isosinglet scalar mesons $f_0(1710)$, $f_0(1500)$, $f_0(1370)$ and their mixing are studied. We employ two recent lattice results as the starting point; one is the isovector scalar meson $a_0(1450)$ which displays an unusual property of…

Motivated by the near-threshold enhancement and the dip structure around 1~GeV in the $\pi^0\pi^0$ invariant mass distribution of the process $D^0\to \pi^0\pi^0\bar{K}^0$ observed by the CLEO Collaboration, we have investigated this process…

The highlights of studies of mixing among scalar mesons below and above 1 GeV within a nonlinear chiral Lagrangian framework is briefly presented. Two scalar meson nonets are introduced to explore the mass spectrum and decay properties of…

The isovector scalar correlator is studied using a class of finite energy sum rules shown recently to be very well satisfied in the vector isovector channel. The values of the $a_0$ scalar decay constants extracted in this analysis, which…

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…

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 $…

Partial widths of the radiative decays $\phi(1020)\to\gamma f_0(980)$, $\gamma\eta$, $\gamma\eta'$, $\gamma\pi^0$ and $f_0(980)\to\gamma\gamma$ are calculated assuming all mesons under consideration to be $q\bar q$ states: $\phi(1020)$ is…

The hadronic charmless B decays into a scalar meson and a vector meson are studied within the framework of QCD factorization. The main results are: (i) The decay rates for the $f_0(980)K^{*-}$ and $f_0(980)\ov K^{*0}$ modes depend on the…

A collective treatment of the I=0 scalar mesons below 2 GeV [sigma (550), f0(980), f0(1370), f0(1500) and f0(1710)] in a non-linear chiral Lagrangian framework that is constrained by the mass and the partial decay widths of the I=1/2,1…

We consider the relative decay rates of B0 and Bs mesons into a J\psi\ plus a light scalar meson either the f0(500) (\sigma) or the f0(980). We show that it is possible to distinguish between the quark content of the scalars being…
