Abstract

The high-statistical KLOE data on the ϕπ0π0γ decay are described simultaneously with the data on the ππ scattering and the ππKK¯ reaction. The description is carried out taking into account the chiral shielding of the putative σ(600) meson and its mixing with the well-established f0(980) meson. It is shown that the data do not contradict the existence of the σ(600) meson and yield evidence in favor of the four-quark nature of the σ(600) and f0(980) mesons.

  2. The nontrivial nature of the well-established light scalar resonances f0(980) and a0(980) is no longer denied practically anybody. In particular, there exist numerous evidences in favor of the four-quark (q2q¯2) structure of these states (see, for example, Refs. [3,4], and references therein). As for the nonet as a whole, a look at Particle Data Group Review [1] gives an idea of the four-quark structure of the light scalar meson nonet, inverted in comparison with the classical two-quark (qq¯) vector and tensor meson nonets. Really, while such a nonet cannot be treated as the qq¯ one in the naive quark model, it can be easily understood as the q2q¯2 nonet, where f0(600) (or σ) has no strange quarks, κ(700900) has the s-quark, and f0(980), a0(980) have the ss¯ pair (see Refs. [5,6]). To be on the safe side, notice that the linear σ model is not contrary to the non-qq¯ nature of the light scalars because quantum fields can contain different virtual particles in different regions of virtuality.

  9. Note that after Ref. [8] a negative background in the σ(600) energy region was introduced in R. Kamiński, L. Leśniak, and J.-P. Maillet, Phys. Rev. D 50, 3145 (1994) without a connection with chiral dynamics. For the sake of objectivity note that the resonance scattering (and production) with background was always known, see G. Breit and E. P. Wigner, Phys. Rev. 49, 519 (1936). The classical example of such a case is the f0(980) resonance which is seen as the narrow deep in the elastic scattering because of its destructive interference with the large background and as the narrow peak in inelastic reactions, for example, in J/ψϕππ. In the case of a wide resonance similar to the putative σ(600) resonance, the large background hinders us from a resonance identification in principle if the background nature is not known. The significance of Ref. [8] consists in revealing the chiral nature of background shielding the putative σ(600) resonance.
