Meson vacuum phenomenology in a three-flavor linear sigma model with (axial-)vector mesons

Abstract: We study scalar, pseudoscalar, vector, and axial-vector mesons with non-strange and strange quantum numbers in the framework of a linear sigma model with global chiral U (N f )L × U (N f )R symmetry. We perform a global fit of meson masses, decay widths, as well as decay amplitudes. The quality of the fit is, for a hadronic model that does not consider isospin-breaking effects, surprisingly good. We also investigate the question whether the scalarqq states lie below or above 1 GeV and find the scalar states ab… Show more

“…In the scalar channel there is some evidence that the members of the lowest-lying nonet may be better described as tetraquarks than quark-antiquark states, see e.g. [319,[387][388][389][390][391][392] and references therein. However, also the axialvectors are underestimated by 20-40%.…”

“…• N f = 3 with frozen glueball (m G → ∞) [5,14]: the results for this scenario are interesting because, for the first time, it is possible to study in a chiral framework the overall vacuum's phenomenology up to 1.7 GeV. The results for the best-fit scenario are listed in Table I.…”

“…It turns out that the best agreement with the experiment is obtained when the quarkantiquark scalar states of the model are assigned to the scalar resonances between 1-2 GeV (theory in Refs. [3][4][5] and experimental results in Ref. [9]).…”
