Interpreting f0(600) and a0(980) as \bar q - q states from an Nf=3 Sigma Model with (Axial-)Vectors

Abstract

We address the question whether it is possible to interpret the low-lying scalar mesons f0(600) and a0(980) as \bar q - q states within a U(3)xU(3) Linear Sigma Model containing vector and axial-vector degrees of freedom.
