We analyze the sigma meson mass and width together with the pion-pion scattering parameters in the context of non-local chiral quark models with wave-function renormalization (WFR). We consider both non-local interactions based on the…
We present a new energy-dependent partial-wave analysis of all antiproton-proton elastic and charge-exchange scattering data below 925 MeV/c antiproton laboratory momentum. The long-range parts of the chiral one- and two-pion exchange…

The article begins with a description of chiral symmetry and its application to neutrino induced reactions. For small $Q^2$ (forward direction) the process is dominated by the amplitute with helicity zero where the pion pole disappears when…
In this paper a measure of complexity of the system of angle-angular momentum quantum states produced in hadronic scattering is introduced in terms of the scattering entropies. We presented strong experimental evidence for the saturation of…
A family of threshold parameters which probe the stability of chiral predictions is considered. The relevant criteria for the choice of threshold parameters are discussed. Sum rules for these quantities are derived from dispersion relations…
Compared in this work are a few sets of results, obtained from the pion-nucleon ($\pi N$) data at low energy (pion laboratory kinetic energy up to $100$ MeV) on the basis of the modelling of the $s$- and $p$-wave $K$-matrix elements (or of…
We use 2HEX smeared gauge configurations generated with an $\mathrm{N}_\mathrm{f}\mathrm{=2+1}$ clover improved Wilson action to investigate $\pi\pi$ scattering in the $\rho$ channel. The range of lattice spacings (0.054 to 0.12 fm) and…
We complete and improve the fits to experimental $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitudes, both at low and high energies, that we performed in the previous papers of this series. We then verify that the corresponding amplitudes satisfy analyticity…
The measurement of the pion-nucleon scattering lengths constitutes a high-precision test of the methods of Chiral Pertubation Theory, which is the low-energy approach of QCD. The pion-nucleon s-wave scattering lengths are related to the…
We adopt the heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory to calculate the $\Sigma_cN$ interaction to the next-to-leading order. We consider the contact interactions, one-pion-exchange contributions, two-pion-exchange diagrams, and…
A chiral quark model approach is extended to the study of the $\pi N$ scattering at low energies. The process of $\pi^{-}p \to \eta n$ near threshold is investigated. The model is successful in describing the differential cross sections and…
We report the results of a phase-shift analysis (PSA) of the low-energy $\pi^\pm p$ elastic-scattering data. Following the method which we had set forth in our previous PSA (Matsinos et al., 2006), we first investigate the self-consistency…

The quadratic pion scalar radius, <r^2>^\pi_s, plays an important role for present precise determinations of \pi\pi scattering. The solution of the Muskhelishvili-Omn\`es equations for the non-strange null isospin (I) pion scalar form…
Background: Effective interactions for nucleon-nucleus ($NA$) elastic scattering from first principles require the use of the same nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) interaction in the structure and reaction calculations, and a consistent treatment of…
Interpreting measurements requires a physical theory, but the theory's accuracy may vary across the experimental domain. To optimize experimental design, and so to ensure that the substantial resources necessary for modern experiments are…
Effective field theory techniques are used to describe the interaction of heavy hadrons in a model independent way. Predictability is obtained by exploiting the symmetries of QCD. Heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory is reviewed and used…
