We present a detailed analysis of S-wave Kpi scattering up to 2 GeV, making use of the resonance chiral Lagrangian predictions together with a suitable unitarisation method. Our approach incorporates known theoretical constraints at low and…
We study pi eta scattering in a model which starts from the tree diagrams of a non-linear chiral Lagrangian including appropriate resonances. Previously, models of this type were applied to pi pi and pi K scattering and were seen to require…
The generalized linear sigma model for mixing among two- and four-quark components of scalar (and psedudosclar) mesons below and above 1 GeV is applied to the $\pi\eta$ channel in which the isovector scalars $a_0(980)$ and $a_0(1450)$ are…
We estimate the I=0 scalar meson $\sigma/f_0(600)$ $\gamma\gamma$ widths, from $\pi\pi$ and $\gamma\gamma$ scattering data below 700 MeV using an improved analytic K-matrix model.
The experimental isoscalar $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi$ S-wave amplitude squared below 1.75 GeV is characterized by a very broad structure $f_0(400-1200)$ with two narrow dips due to its destructive interference with the $f_0(980)$ and $f_0(1500)$.…

We present a data-driven analysis of the resonant S-wave $\pi\pi \to \pi\pi$ and $\pi K \to \pi K$ reactions using the partial-wave dispersion relation. The contributions from the left-hand cuts are accounted for using the Taylor expansion…

We evaluate analytically the elastic $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude to two loops in chiral perturbation theory and give numerical values for the two $S$--wave scattering lengths and for the phase shift difference $\delta_0^0-\delta_1^1$.
The lowest-lying resonance in the QCD spectrum is the $0^{++}$ isoscalar $\sigma$ meson, also known as the $f_0(500)$. We augment SU(2) chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT) by including the $\sigma$ meson as an additional explicit degree…
