Riddle of the scalars: where is the sigma?
Abstract
Description
The riddle of the sigma is recast in a way that tries to differentiate fact from fiction as a basis for future/further discussion. By doing this, it is hoped that the role of the sigma as dominating the ubiquitous $ππ$ interactions below 1 GeV and its relation to the QCD vacuum can be clarified.
