We revisit the information on the two lightest $a_0$ resonances and $S$-wave $\pi\eta$ scattering that can be extracted from photon-photon scattering experiments. For this purpose we construct a model for the $S$-wave photon-photon…
We discuss the recent Cabibbo's proposal to measure the pion-pion scattering lengths combination a0-a2 from the cusp effect in the pi0-pi0 energy spectrum at threshold for K+ to (pi0 pi0 pi+) and KL to (pi0 pi0 pi0). We estimate the…
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…

In this talk I summarize a recently proposed mechanism to understand pi pi scattering to 1 GeV. The model is motivated by the 1/Nc expansion to QCD, and includes a current algebra contact term and resonant pole exchanges. Chiral symmetry…
Combining large $N_C$ techniques and partial wave dispersion theory to analyze the $\pi\pi$ scattering, without relying on any explicit resonance lagrangian, some interesting results are derived: (a) a general KSRF relation including the…

Based on the analysis of 6.031*10^7 K+- --> pi0 pi0 pi+- decays, the NA48/2 collaboration has recently determined the S-wave pi-pi scattering lengths a_0-a_2 with high precision. In addition, the scattering length a_2 has been independently…

Pion pion scattering is studied in a generalized linear sigma model which contains two scalar nonets (one of quark-antiquark type and the other of diquark-antidiquark type) and two corresponding pseudoscalar nonets. An interesting feature…
CERN measurements of pi(-)p->pi(-)pi(+)n on polarized target at 17.2 GeV/c enable experimental determination of partial wave production amplitudes below 1080 MeV. The measured S-wave transversity amplitudes provide evidence for a narrow…
We investigate the determination of the pole associated to $\sigma$ from $\pi\pi$ scattering data below the $K\bar{K}$ threshold, including the new precise data from $K_{e4}$ decay reported recently by the NA48/2 Collaboration. Using a…
The scalar-isoscalar, scalar-isotensor and vector-isovector pi-pi amplitudes are fitted simultaneously to experimental data and to Roy's equations. The resulting amplitudes are compared with those fitted only to experimental data. No…
We study meson-baryon scattering with strangeness -1 in unitary chiral perturbation theory. Ten coupled channels are considered in our work, namely $\pi^0 \Lambda$, $\pi^0 \Sigma^0$, $\pi^- \Sigma^+$, $\pi^+ \Sigma^-$, $K^- p$, $\bar{K}^0…
We analyze the conditions under which a statistical error analysis can be carried out in the case of $\pi\pi$ scattering, namely the normality of residuals in the conventional $\chi^2$-fit method. Here we check that the current and…
The decay $\eta'\to\eta\pi^{0}\pi^{0}$ is studied in the framework of isobar model. It is shown, that good agreement with the experiment is achieved if $a_0$- and $\sigma$-meson contributions are taken into account. The contribution of…
We present a new method for the determination of the pion-pion scattering lenght combination a0-a2, based on the study of the pi0-pi0 spectrum in K->pi+ pi0 pi0 in the vicinity of the pi+ pi- threshold. The method requires a minimum of…
We consider the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude obtained by Colangelo, Gasser and Leutwyler (CGL), using dispersion relations and chiral perturbation theory to two loops. We point out that the input used by CGL for energies above 1.42 GeV is…
