Abstract

In this write-up, I summarize the analyses on the low-lying scalar mesons I have done recently with my collaborators. I first briefly review the previous analyses on the hadronic processes related to the scalar mesons, which shows that the scalar nonet takes dominantly the qqqq structure. Next, I summarize our analysis on the radiative decays involving the scalar mesons, which indicates that it is difficult to distinguish qqqq picture and qq picture just from radiative decays. Finally, I summarize our recent analysis on the π-π scattering in the large Nc QCD, which indicates that the σ meson is likely the qqqq state.
