The R- and K-matrix parametrizations are analyzed and compared for the elastic alpha-alpha scattering at center-of-mass energies below 40 MeV. The two parametrizations differ in their definitions of the resonance energy which can lead to…
The separation of background and resonance contributions in pion-nucleon scattering is an often discussed issue. We investigate to what extent the background can be separated from the pole contribution. For illustration we use results from…
By separating data points close to a resonance into intervals, and fitting all possible intervals to a simple pole with constant coherently added background, we obtained a substantial number of convergent fits. After a carefully chosen set…

Pion-kaon ($\pi K$) pairs occur frequently as final states in heavy-particle decays. A consistent treatment of $\pi K$ scattering and production amplitudes over a wide energy range is therefore mandatory for multiple applications: in…
Structures in the invariant mass distribution are often linked to unstable intermediate states or resonances. In experiments, many signals are detected which have broad, overlapping or intricate profiles, which makes their characterization…
The analytic properties of scattering amplitudes provide important information. Besides the cuts, the poles and zeros on the different Riemann sheets determine the global behavior of the amplitude on the physical axis. Pole positions and…
