TL;DR
This paper reviews light scalar mesons, proposes a naive model constrained by D decay data to predict their wave functions, and computes transition form factors between B and scalar mesons.
Contribution
It introduces a simple model constrained by experimental D decay data to predict properties of light scalar mesons and calculates related transition form factors.
Findings

Computed transition form factors between B and scalar mesons.
Provided insights into scalar meson structure and decays.
Abstract
A short review on light scalar mesons is performed both in experiment and theory. A naive model, constrained by D branching ratios, is derived in order to make predictions on the wave functions of the and mesons. This leads us to compute transition form factors between the pseudoscalar and scalar mesons.
