Predictions

Receive corrections due to the unitarization of p p scattering amplitude

Results:

K-matrix unitarization of prediction for real part of I=J=0 p p scattering amplitue

Summary:The generalized linear sigma model seems to provide a consistentpicture for the mixing of scalar and pseudoscalar mesons below 2 GeV

Scalar meson content is predicted to be reverse of the pseudoscalar meson Contant

Future works:

Pi K and pi eta scatterings

Eta prime decays

Inclusion of glueballs
