We show that it makes sense to coarse grain hadronic interactions such as $\pi\pi$ and $\pi N$ reactions following previous work on NN scattering. Moreover, if the interaction is taken to be given by chiral dynamics at long distances above…
We study the Large $N_\text{c}$ scaling of pion-pion scattering amplitudes for $N_\text{f}=4$ degenerate quark flavors. We focus on the standard isospin-2 channel and the adjoint-antisymmetric (AA) representation. The latter only exists for…
We present a coupled-channel Lagrangian approach (GiM) to describe the $\pi N \to \pi N$, $2\pi N$ scattering in the resonance energy region. The $2\pi N$ production has been significantly improved by using the isobar approximation with…
We present the results of energy-dependent and single-energy partial-wave analyses of $\pi$N elastic scattering data with laboratory kinetic energies below 2.1~GeV. Resonance structures have been extracted using Breit-Wigner fits, speed…
The $F$ and $G$ form-factors of $K_{\ell4}$ and the quark condensates are calculated to ${\cal O}(p^6)$ in Chiral Perturbation Theory (CHPT). Full formulas are presented as much as possible. A full refit of most of the ${\cal O}(p^4)$ CHPT…
We investigate the two-body reactions $\bar K N\rightarrow \bar K N$, $\bar K N\rightarrow \pi \Lambda$, and $\bar K N\rightarrow \pi \Sigma$ via single-energy partial-wave analyses in the c.m.\ energy range 1480 to 2100 MeV. The…
We review our recent one-loop calculation of all the two meson scattering amplitudes within SU(3) Chiral Perturbation Theory, i.e. with pions, kaons and etas. By unitarizing these amplitudes we are able to generate dynamically the lightest…
Initiated by the recent observation of a flattened lineshape of $IJ^{PC}=00^{-+}$ around $1.4\sim 1.5$ GeV in the $K_S K_S \pi^0$ invariant mass spectrum by BESIII, we make a systematic partial wave analysis of $J/\psi \to\gamma\eta_X\to…
We investigate dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and the emergence of mesonic bound states from the infrared dynamics of four-quark scatterings. Both phenomena originate from the resonant scalar-pseudoscalar channel of the four-quark…
The energies of the low-lying isoscalar and isovector ud anti-s anti-s configurations with spin-parity J^P=0^+, 1^+, and 2^+ are calculated in a non-relativistic constituent quark model by use of the variational method. The contributions of…
$\Kbar N$ interactions are investigated {\it via} an effective non-linear chiral meson-baryon Lagrangian. The adjustable parameters are determined by a fitting procedure on the $K^-p$ threshold branching ratios and total cross-section data…

Unphysical effects associated with finite lattice spacing and partial quenching may lead to the presence of unphysical terms in chiral extrapolation formulae. These unphysical terms must then be removed during data analysis before physical…
We study s-wave meson-baryon scattering using the chiral unitary model. We consider $1/2^{-}$ baryon resonances as quasibound states of the low lying mesons ($\pi,K,\eta$) and baryons ($N,\Lambda,\Sigma,\Xi$). In previous works, the…

An investigation of the s-wave channels in meson-meson scattering is performed within a U(3) chiral unitary approach. Our calculations are based on a chiral effective Lagrangian which includes the eta' as an explicit degree of freedom and…
Unphysical effects associated with finite lattice spacing and partial quenching generally lead to to the presence of unphysical terms in chiral extrapolation formulae, which must be removed to make physical predictions. We use mixed action…
