pi pi scattering at low energy is sensitive to the structure of the QCD vacuum. I review the calculations of the pi pi scattering lengths and phases, and group them in three cathegories: 1. those based on very general theoretical…
Charge-exchange rescattering $\pi^+\pi^-\to \pi^0\pi^0$ leads to a cusp effect in the $\pi^0\pi^0$ invariant mass spectrum of processes with $\pi^0\pi^0$ in the final state which can be used to measure $\pi\pi$ $S$-wave scattering lengths.…
