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 study the possibility that the scalar mesons exist as four-quark states. The energy shift of two pseudoscalar mesons as a function of spatial lattice size makes a distinction between bound states and scattering states of four-quark…
We extend the formalism pioneered by Callan, Coote and Gross to investigate the meson-meson scattering within the framework of 't Hooft model, i.e., the two-dimensional QCD in the $N_c\to \infty$ limit. We derive the analytic expressions…
Extending earlier work on strong-coupling meson-baryon scattering in QCD_2, we derive the effective meson-baryon action for any value of the coupling constant, in the large-N_c limit. Colour degrees of freedom play an important role, and we…
We discuss the possibility of extracting phase shifts from finite volume energies for meson-meson scattering, where the mesons are fermion-antifermion bound states of the massive Schwinger model with SU(2) flavour symmetry. The existence of…
Nucleon-nucleon systems in the $^3S_1$ and the $^1S_0$ channels are studied in lattice quantum chromodynamics at a pion mass of approximately $m_{\pi}\approx292$ MeV, employing three $N_f = 2+1$ ensembles with the same pion mass and lattice…

Corrections to meson/ground-state baryon scattering amplitudes in the 1/N_c expansion of QCD have previously been shown to be controlled by the t-channel difference |I_t - J_t| of isospin and angular momentum and by the change of…
Two-quark--two-antiquark systems with four different quark flavors are considered in the framework of two-dimensional QCD, in the light-cone gauge, at leading orders of the $1/N_c^{}$ expansion. Introducing basis functions with…
We determine scattering phase shifts for S,P,D, and F partial wave channels in two-nucleon systems using lattice QCD methods. We use a generalization of Luscher's finite volume method to determine infinite volume phase shifts from a set of…
