Abstract

The temperature behaviour of the pion width in the hadronic phase is investigated in the framework of the NJL model. The contribution to the width from the pion-pion collision is considered with a scalar sigma-meson as an intermediate state. It is shown that the pion width significantly broadens at T>0.1T>0.1 GeV. Using the two-step iteration method, suggested by Kadanoff and Baym, the pion spectral function in a hot pion gas is calculated at different temperatures.
