Scalar meson candidates are too
numerous to fit in a single qq nonet. Some of them may be multiquark, glueball,
meson-meson bound state, etc….
Charm meson decays are a powerful tool for investigating light quark spectroscopy:
• Large coupling to scalar mesons
• An initial state well defined J
P= 0
-• Final spectrum not constrained by isospin and parity conservation
