We study coupled channel effects upon isospin I=2 and I=0 $\pi\pi$ S-wave interaction. With introduction of the $\pi\pi\to\rho\rho\to\pi\pi$ coupled channel box diagram contribution into $\pi\pi$ amplitude in addition to $\rho$ and $f_2…

After a short summary of my talk, I discuss $K_{l3}$ decays and elastic $\pi\pi$ scattering in the framework of chiral perturbation theory.
We want to test the predictive power of Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT). In this work, we use the ChPT pion-pion scattering amplitude, including two loop contributions, and we obtain S- and P-wave low-energy phase shifts. We show that, by…
The pi+pi- atom decays -in the ground state - predominantly into two neutral pions. We present a general expression for the corresponding decay width in the framework of QCD (including photons). It contains all terms at leading and…
The pion mass difference generates a pronounced cusp in the pi0 pi0 invariant mass distribution of K+ --> pi0 pi0 pi+ decays. As originally pointed out by Cabibbo, an accurate measurement of the cusp may allow one to pin down the S-wave…
A new unitarization approach incorporated with chiral symmetry is established and applied to study the $\pi K$ elastic scatterings. We demonstrate that the $\kappa$ resonance exists, if the scattering length parameter in the I=1/2, J=0…
Using 385 fb^-1 of e^+e^- collisions at the CM energies of around 10.6 GeV recorded by the BaBar experiment, we study the amplitudes of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay D^0 --> K^- K^+ pi^0. We measure the strong phase difference between…
I demonstrate that the short distance contribution to K --> Pi Pi decays must be supplemented with large distance effects. A hybrid calculation is outlined based on QCD diagrams supplemented by chiral contributions and Pi-Pi phaseshifts.
Isospin breaking correction to the $\Delta I = {1/2}$ decay of $K\to\pi\pi$ generates a large enough contribution to $\epsilon'$ through an induced $\Delta I = {3/2}$ amplitude in $K_L$ decay. Aside from the $\pi$-$\eta$ and $\pi$-$\eta'$…
The OKA Collaboration has obtained a new upper limit on the $K^+ \to \pi^0\pi^0\pi^0 e^+ \nu$ decay probability which is 65 times lower than the one currently listed by PDG. However it is still about $10^{4}$ times worse than the…
The isoscalar and isovector scattering lengths (b_0,b_1) are determined using a unitarized coupled channel approach based on chiral Lagrangians. Using experimental values of pionic hydrogen and deuterium as well as low energy pi N…
We present results of phase shift for I=2 $S$-wave $\pi\pi$ system with the Wilson fermions in the quenched approximation. The finite size method proposed by L\"uscher is employed, and calculations are carried out at $\beta=5.9$…
In the last few years it has become possible to study low energy pi pi scattering in kaon decays to three pions, thanks to the high statistics measurement of K+- -> pi+- pi0 pi0 decays performed by the NA48/2 experiment at the CERN SPS. At…
With the aim of generating new constraints on the OZI suppressed couplings of chiral perturbation theory a set of six equations of the Roy and Steiner type for the $S$- and $P$-waves of the $\pi K$ scattering amplitudes is derived. The…
Suggested by Au, Morgan, Pennington (AMP) S-wave isospin I=0 $\pi\pi$, $KK$ scattering amplitude is good enough to describe experimental data for the moment. Still it has two disadvantages for use in multiparticle partial wave analysis…
The extrapolation of the decay amplitudes of the pseudoscalar mesons into two photons from the soft meson limit where it is obtained from the axial-anomaly to the mass shell involves the contribution of the 0^ - continuum. These chiral…
