The T-matrix, satisfying two-channel unitarity, is given in a form which matches the chiral expansion results at order p(4) exactly for the eta pi -> eta pi, eta pi -> K (K) over bar amplitudes and approximately for K (K) over bar -> K (K) over bar. It contains six phenomenological parameters. Asymptotic conditions are imposed which ensure a minimal solution of the Muskhelishvili-Omnes problem, thus allowing one to compute the eta pi and K (K) over bar form factor matrix elements of the I = 1 scalar current from the T-matrix. The phenomenological parameters are determined such as to reproduce the experimental properties of the a(0)(980), a(0)(1450) resonances, as well as the chiral results of the eta pi and K (K) over bar scalar radii, which are predicted to be remarkably small at O(p(4)). This T-matrix model could be used for a unified treatment of the eta pi final-state interaction problem in processes such as eta {\textquoteright} -> eta pi pi, phi -> eta pi gamma or the eta pi initial-state interaction in eta -> 3 pi.", optnote="WOS:000362951600001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=2415), last updated on Thu, 05 Nov 2015 12:12:07 +0000", issn="1434-6044", doi="10.1140/epjc/s10052-015-3715-z", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1507.04526", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-015-3715-z", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1507.04526", language="English" }
