Light scalar mesons in the soft-wall model of AdS/QCD
Open accessAbstract
We study light scalar mesons in the holographic QCD soft-wall model with a background dilaton field. The masses and decay constants are compatible with experiment and QCD determinations if ${a}_{0}(980)$ and ${f}_{0}(980)$ are identified as the lightest scalar mesons; moreover, the states are organized in linear Regge trajectories with the same slope of vector mesons. Comparing the two-point correlation function of scalar operators derived on the anti--de Sitter side and in QCD, information about the condensates can be derived. Strong couplings of scalar states to pairs of light pseudoscalar mesons turn out to be small, at odds with experiment and QCD estimates: we discuss how this discrepancy is related to the description of chiral symmetry breaking in this model, and the possible solutions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
