Abstract
The chiral confining Lagrangian, based on chiral theory with quark degrees of freedom, is used to study the spectroscopy of scalar mesons. The formalism does not contain arbitrary fitting parameters, and it takes into account an infinite number of transitions from meson-meson to quark-antiquark states. Starting from known poles, the transition coefficients ensure the strong shift of the poles for and a much smaller shift for the systems. The resulting amplitudes and are calculated in terms of and the free meson Green’s functions. Taking the channel coupling into account, one obtains two resonances: a wide resonance in the range 500–700 MeV and narrow near 1 GeV, which can be associated with and . A similar analysis, applied to the channel, shows that in this case two very close poles in different sheets appear near , which can be associated with the resonance. The obtained interaction amplitudes, and , are compared with the known data.
