Comment on "Two-photon decay of the sigma meson"

Eef van Beveren, Frieder Kleefeld, George Rupp +1

We comment on a recent paper by Giacosa, Gutsche, and Lyobovitskij, in which it is argued that a quarkonium interpretation of the meson should give rise to a much smaller two-p…

Review of Scalar Mesons

D. V. Bugg

The formulae needed to parametrise sigma, kappa, a0(980) and f0(980) are reviewed. For sigma and kappa, the Adler zero due to Chiral Symmetry Breaking plays a crucial role. The f0(…
