Description

We follow chiral effective model [1] of a quarkonia nonet and a tetraquark nonet as well as a complex iso-singlet (glueball) field to study the lowest lying scalar mesons on the basis of chiral symmetry and UA(1) symmetry. By virtue of the isospin symmetry, the isospin 1 and isospin 1/2 physical states are assumed to have two and four bare quark components whereas I = 0 physical scalar and pseudoscalar mesons are assumed to have all the three bare components. We find that the model can accommodate the mass spectra of low-lying states quite well. Based on our result, we will discuss on the nature of the lowest iso-scalar f0(600) or sigma meson as well as the possible scalar and pseudoscalar glueball candidates. Referece: 1. Tamal K.
