Abstract
We use simultaneous Pad\'e approximations to hypergeometric functions to estimate from below linear forms in , , and with integral coefficients, for certain choices of positive integer and negative integer , where is (the square of) a Chowla--Selberg period attached to the imaginary quadratic field .
