$\pi\pi$ Scattering in Three Flavour ChPT

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2011-03-22 v1

Abstract

We present the scattering lengths for the ππ\pi\pi processes in the three flavour Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) framework at next-to-next-to-leading order. We then combine this calculation with the determination of the parameters from Ke4K_{e4} and the masses and decay constants and compare with the results of a dispersive analysis of ππ\pi\pi scattering. The comparison indicates a small but nonzero value for the 1/Nc1/N_c suppressed NLO low energy constants L4rL_4^r and L6rL_6^r.
