Three channel model of meson-meson scattering and scalar meson spectroscopy

Abstract: New solutions on the scalar -isoscalar ππ phase shifts are analysed together with previous KK results using a separable potential model of three coupled channels (ππ , KK and an effective 2π2π system). Model parameters are fitted to two sets of solutions obtained in a recent analysis of the CERN-Cracow-Munich measurements of the π − p ↑ → π + π − n reaction on a polarized target. A relatively narrow (90 -180 MeV) scalar resonance f 0 (1400 − 1460) is found, in contrast to a much broader (Γ ≈ 500 MeV) state eme… Show more

“…Such quark content can, e.g., easily explain a large branching ratio of 22% of the f 0 (980) decay into the KK channel. The mass of the scalar isoscalar mostly octet state predicted by our solution, 1467 ± 44 MeV, is in good agreement with recent analysis by Kaminski et al [36] of the three coupled channel (ππ, KK, 4π) model which reveals a relatively narrow (Γ = 135 ± 45 MeV) resonance with a mass of 1430 ± 30 MeV.…”

“…Moussallam's form factor has been calculated for the meson-meson amplitudes taken from the three-channel model of Ref. [43] under an additional assumption that the off-diagonal matrix elements T 13 and T 23 are set equal to zero in the region below the third threshold (m 0 < 1.4 GeV). Moreover the cut-off energy E 0 defined in [41] has been chosen equal to 2 GeV.…”

“…Only two-body states were considered, and two-body unitarity was implemented. A σσ channel was introduced to mimic the 4π contribution, but it was shown to be relevant only above 1400 MeV [75,76]. In another example [77], a broad σ was included in a simple model, which was nevertheless unitary and crossing symmetric, containing the lowest-order chiral (contact) term and explicit resonances at tree level, in order to describe ππ scattering.…”

“…In addition, by the end of the nineties and throughout the first decade of the new millennium, virtually all approaches that fitted either heavy meson decays and/or ππ scattering phases containing at the very least some minimal implementation of chiral symmetry, unitarity and analyticity obtained a pole around 430 to 550 MeV corresponding to a broad resonance whose width lied between 400 to 600 MeV (for references on these years see [74,75,76,96,98,99,100,101,102,103,104]). This can be checked in Fig.4. …”
