We use a nonperturbative approach which combines coupled channel Lippmann Schwinger equations with meson-meson potentials provided by the lowest order chiral Lagrangians. By means of one parameter, a cut off in the momentum of the loop integrals, which results of the order of 1 GeV, we obtain singularities in the S-wave amplitudes corresponding to the σ,f0 and a0 resonances. The ππ-->ππ, ππ-->KK phase shifts and inelasticities in the T=0 scalar channel are well reproduced as well as the π-ηand K-K0 mass distributions in the T=1 channel. Furthermore, the total and partial decay widths of the f0 and a0 resonances are properly reproduced including also the decay into the γγchannel. The results seem to indicate that chiral symmetry constraints at low energy and unitarity in coupled channels is the basic information contained in the meson-meson interaction below √(s)=1.2 GeV.
