The Scalar Mesons, Symmetry Breaking, Three Colors and Confinement
Nils A. Tornqvist
The same, well known, det(Sigma)+ h.c. term in effective theories, which 't Hooft showed is generated by instantons in QCD and which resolves the UA(1) problem giving mass, in part…
Mixing the Strong and E-W Higgs Sectors
Nils A. Tornqvist
After noting the well known similarity of the minimal electro-weak Higgs sector with the linear sigma model for the pion and the sigma, it is found that a small mixing term between…
Isospin breaking of the narrow charmonium state of Belle at 3872 MeV as a deuson
Nils A. Tornqvist
The narrow charmonium state near 3872 MeV reported by the Belle collaboration and confirmedby CDF lies almost exactly at the neutral D anti-D* threshold. As was predicted many year…
Comment on the narrow charmonium state of Belle at 3871.8 MeV as a deuson
Nils A. Tornqvist
It is pointed out that the narrow charmonium state at 3871.8 MeV reported by the Belle collaboration is likely to be a deuteronlike meson-meson state called a deuson. I…
The light scalars, especially the sigma, in charm decay and elsewhere
N. A. Tornqvist, A. D. Polosa
We discuss how the lightest scalars, in particular the broad sigma resonance, can be understood as unitarized (qbar q) states within a unitarized quark model (UQM). The bare (qbar…
How to understand the lightest scalars
Nils A. Tornqvist
Based on previous papers I discuss how I understand the lightest scalars using a general coupled channel model. This model includes all light two-pseudoscalar thresholds, constrain…
