Description
Recently we obtained the evidence for the existence of sigma(600) meson, which had been sought but missing for a long time, by reanalyzing the I=0 S-wave pi pi scattering phase shift. The sigma-existence was also suggested through the analyses of pi pi production processes, pp central collision pp to pp pi^0 pi^0 and J/psi to omega pi pi decay. The observed properties through these works of sigma meson satisfy the mass and width relation of SU(2) linear sigma model. The physical origin of the repulsive background phase shift delta_{BG}, which was essential to lead to the sigma-existence in our phase shift analysis, is also due to the "compensating lambda phi^4-interaction" in linear sigma model. Furthermore in this talk the experimental property of the delta_{BG} is shown to be describable quantitatively in the framework of linear sigma model including rho-meson contribution.
