As a compilation of the pole positions of the obatined in the modern analyses: Significance of respecting chiral symmetry,unitarity and crossing symmetry to reproduce the phase shifts both in the (s)- and , (t)-channels with a low mass pole;(Igi and Hikasa(1999)).

2. Seen in decay processes from heavy particles; E. M. Aitala et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. (86), 770 (2001)

3. Responsible for the intermediate range attraction in the nuclear force.

• In the constituent quark model;    the mass in the 1.2 --- 1.6 GeV region.

Some mechanism needed to down the mass   with ~ 600 MeV;

• (i) Color magnetic interaction between the di-quarks? (Jaffe; 1977)

• (ii) The collectiveness of the scalar mode as the ps mode; a superposition of states. Chiral symmetry (NJL)

• (iii) The - molecule as suggested in scatt. . (vi) a mixed state of scalar glue ball and states

• There have been accumulation of experimental evidence of the pole in the pi-pi scattering matrix. ( chiral symmetry, analyticity and crossing symmetry.

• A full lattice QCD suggests the existence of the •Partial restoration of chiral symmetry in hot and dense mediumas represented by the decreasing f leads to a softeningof the and the pole in the 2nd Riemann sheet in various chiral models.

•Even a slight restoration of chiral symmetry in the hadronic matter leads to a peculiar enhancement in the spectral function in the channel near the 2m threshold.
