Institut für Theoretische Physik Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main Structure of Scalar Mesons f0(600), a0(980), f0(1370) and a0(1450) Denis Parganlija In collaboration with Francesco Giacosa and Dirk H. Rischke [Based on arXiv: 1003.4934 [hep-ph]] Denis Parganlija (Frankfurt U.) Meson 2010 Workshop, Kraków - Poland
Motivation: Effective Theories of QCD andLinear Sigma Model • Description of low-energy hadrons (mesons) • Generalisation to T, μ≠ 0 Linear Sigma Model: • Treats chiral partners on the same footing • Vacuum calculations → calculations at T≠0 • Degeneration of chiral partners above TC Denis Parganlija (Frankfurt U.) Meson 2010 Workshop, Kraków - Poland
Motivation: Structure of Scalar Mesons • Spontaneous Breaking of Chiral Symmetry→ Goldstone Bosons (π) • Restoration of Chiral Invariance and Deconfinement ↔ Degeneration of Chiral Partners (π/σ) • Nature of scalar mesons • Scalar states under1 GeV →f0(600), a0(980) • Scalar states above 1 GeV → f0(1370), a0(1450) – additional scalar states under 1 GeV required (tetraquarks?) f0(600), „sigma“ f0(1370) Denis Parganlija (Frankfurt U.) Meson 2010 Workshop, Kraków - Poland
Scenario I: Scalars under 1 GeV • Nf = 2 Scalars→ Pseudoscalars → Vectors → Axialvectors → scalars pseudoscalars vectors axialvectors Denis Parganlija (Frankfurt U.) Meson 2010 Workshop, Kraków - Poland

Scenario II – Scattering Lengths • Scattering lengths saturated • Additional scalars: tetraquarks, quasi-molecular states • Glueball Denis Parganlija (Frankfurt U.) Meson 2010 Workshop, Kraków - Poland
Summary • LSM with global U(2)Rx U(2)Linvariance: scattering lengths, low-energy meson decay widths • General phenomenology in agreement with experiment (ρ→ππ, a1→πγ, f1→aoπ, a0→ηπ decay, ππscattering lengths) • The f0(600) → ππ decay widthfails to match experiment ↔quarkonium structure of f0(600), a0(980) excluded • Quarkonium structure off0(1370), a0(1450) favoured, f0(1370) → ππ in agreement with experiment • Scalar states under 1 GeV required for correct description of pion-pion scattering lengths Denis Parganlija (Frankfurt U.) Meson 2010 Workshop, Kraków - Poland
Outlook • Consequences of Global Invariance up to 4th Order • Chiral Models With Three Flavours • Mixing in the Scalar Sector • Extension to Non-Zero Temperature: Study Chiral Symmetry Restoration • Low Energy Constants of QCD • p, d Wave Scattering Lengths • Include Tensor, Pseudotensor Mesons, Baryons (Nucleons) Denis Parganlija (Frankfurt U.)
