The possibility of adding a D-wave term to the standard Skyrme effective interaction has been widely considered in the past. Such a term has been shown to appear in the next-to-next-to-leading order of the Skyrme pseudo-potential. The aim…
$K\pi$ $S$ wave scattering is studied using a chiral unitary approach (ChUT) taking into account coupled channels. With the amplitudes derived from the lowest order chiral Lagrangian as the kernel of a set of coupled channel Bathe-Salpeter…
The $\sigma$ resonance was observed as a conspicuous $\pi^+\pi^-$ peak in hadronic decays like $J/\psi\to \pi^+\pi^-\omega$ or $D^+\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+$. The phase of the $\sigma\to\pi^+\pi^-$ amplitude, extracted from production data within…
The elastic $I=1/2$, $s$- and $p$-wave kaon-pion scattering amplitudes are calculated using a single ensemble of anisotropic lattice QCD gauge field configurations with $N_{\mathrm{f}} = 2+1$ flavors of dynamical Wilson-clover fermions at…
An amplitude analysis of the $D^+ \to \pi^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ decay is performed with a sample corresponding to $1.5\rm fb^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity of $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV collected by the LHCb…
A dependence of the value of the pion-nucleon sigma term on higher partial waves is discussed. Two recent predictions of a high value of sigma term are scrutinezed. It has been concluded that the main reason for obtaining high values of the…
The hypothesis of sigma meson pole dominance in the Delta I = 1/2 K -> pi pi amplitudes is tested by using the K_L-K_S mass difference.
We report on a dispersion relation for the \gamma\gamma\to (\pi\pi)_I S-wave in isospin I emphasizing the low energy region. The f_0(980) signal that emerges in \gamma\gamma\to \pi\pi is also discussed. Our results could be used to…
The electric dipole strength distribution in $^{40}$Ca between 5 and 25 MeV has been determined at RCNP, Osaka, from proton inelastic scattering experiments at very forward angles. Combined with total photoabsorption data at higher…
The reaction pim p --> omega pim p, omega --> pip pim pi0 has been studied at 18 GeV/c. The omega pim mass spectrum is found to be dominated by the b1(1235). Partial Wave Analysis shows that b1 production is dominated by natural parity…
We review the use of new and precise dispersive equations, which also implement crossing symmetry, in order to shed further light on the long-standing puzzle in the parameters of the f0(500), as well as the f0(980). This puzzle is finally…
Heavy flavour decay to light hadrons is the key to understanding many aspects of the SM from CP violation to strong dynamics. It is often presumed in line with the simple quark spectator model of D decay to Kpipi that the Kpi system has…
We improve, in the energy region between $\bar{K}K$ threshold and $\sim~1.4$ GeV, the energy-dependent phase shift analysis of $\pi\pi$ scattering presented in a previous paper. For the S0 wave we have included more data above $\bar{K}K$…
We analyze the existing data on the angular distributions of the $\gamma\gamma\to \pi^+ \pi^- ,\pi^0 \pi^0$ reactions with using of the unitary model for helicity 2 amplitude. The purpose is to obtain the D--wave parameters and S--wave…
Partial wave analyses have been performed on BES data to study scalar mesons. There is evidence for the $\kappa$ near the $K\pi$ threshold and the pole position is $(760\sim840) -$i$(310\sim 420)$ MeV. The $\sigma$ peak is seen in…
The (Kbar-N-pi) system is studied using separable interactions fitted to data available on the s-wave (Kbar-N)--(pi-Y) subsystem and the p-wave (pi-N),(pi-Y),(pi-pi) and (pi-Kbar) subsystems. Three-body (Kbar-N-pi)--(pi-Y-pi) coupled…

The main experimental works, where dipole polarizabilities of charged pions have been determined, are considered. Possible reasons for the differences between the experimental data are discussed. In particular, it is shown that the account…
The pion mass difference generates a pronounced cusp in K --> 3 pi decays. As has recently been pointed out by Cabibbo and Isidori, an accurate measurement of the cusp may allow one to pin down the S-wave pi pi scattering lengths to high…
