Medium and high energy absorptive parts contribute to dispersive expressions for D- wave scattering lengths, $a^0_2$ and $a^2_2$. For the model employed by Basdevant, Frogatt and Peterson we find the D- wave driving term contributions to…
Scattering processes featuring the strong interactions can be studied using lattice QCD by means of the L\"uscher formalism. This approach relies on analyticity and unitarity of the $S$-matrix to relate infinite-volume scattering amplitudes…
We study the scaling of meson-meson scattering amplitudes with the number of colors, $N_\text{c}$. We use lattice calculations in a theory with $N_\text{f}=4$ degenerate flavors, with $N_\text{c}=3-6$ and pion mass $M_\pi\approx 560$ MeV.…
