Low-energy partial-wave $\pi N$ scattering data is reexamined with the help of the production representation of partial-wave $S$ matrix, where branch cuts and poles are thoroughly under consideration. The left-hand cut contribution to the…
We describe partial-wave analyses of the systems \pi-\eta and \pi-\eta' produced in interactions of a \pi- beam (190 GeV/c) with a liquid hydrogen target. The data were recorded during the 2008 COMPASS run, where a slow recoiling proton…
The S and P wave $\pi \pi$ phase shifts are recalculated in terms of two phenomenological parameters using the one loop CPTh and the elastic unitarity condition. Using these phase shifts, the vector and scalar form factors are calculated…
The reactions $\gamma p\to\pi^0 p$ and $\gamma p\to\pi^+ n$ are analyzed in a semi-phenomenological approach up to $E\sim2.3$ GeV. Fits to differential cross section and single and double polarization observables are performed. A good…
A new evaluation of the universal $\pi\pi$ scattering length relation is used to extract the $\pi\pi$ $s$-wave scattering lengths from threshold pion production data. Previous work has shown that the chiral perturbation series relating…
Aims. We study the geometry and kinematics of the circumstellar environment of the Be star Kappa CMa in the Br gamma emission line and its nearby continuum. Methods. We use the VLTI/AMBER instrument operating in the K band which provides a…
Compton scattering by the proton has been measured using the tagged-photon facility at MAMI (Mainz) and the large-acceptance arrangement LARA. The new data are interpreted in terms of dispersion theory based on the SAID-SM99K…
We determine the $\pi NN$ and $\pi N\Delta$ formfactors from the $P_{11}$ resp. $P_{33}$ partial wave of $\pi N$ scattering by dressing corresponding bare vertices with the help of $\pi N$ non--pole contributions. The underlying model is…
An old calculation of the s-wave pi-pi scattering lengths is updated and supplemented with experimental data on the pi-pi s-wave phase shift. The results ma0 = .215 and ma2 = -.039 are in excellent agreement with those obtained from a…
Recent BES results on light scalars are reported in this talk, including the observation of a charged kappa decaying to K pi0 with 5.8 * 10^7 J/psi data at BES II and the direct measurements of a0(980)-f0(980) mixing in the processes J/psi…
The eta(1835) is confirmed clearly in new BESIII data for J/Psi -> gamma (eta'-pi-pi); the angular distribution of the photon is consistent with a pseudoscalar. This makes it a candidate for an s-sbar radial excitation of eta' and eta(1440)…
The quasifree $\overrightarrow{\gamma} d\to\pi^0n(p)$ photon beam asymmetry, $\Sigma$, has been measured at photon energies, $E_\gamma$, from 390 to 610 MeV, corresponding to center of mass energy from 1.271 to 1.424 GeV, for the first…
We present for the first time a determination of the energy dependence of the isoscalar $\pi\pi$ elastic scattering phase-shift within a first-principles numerical lattice approach to QCD. Hadronic correlation functions are computed…
In production processes, e.g. J/Psi -> omega-pi-pi or pbar-p -> 3pi, the sigma and fo(980) overlap in the same partial wave. The conjecture of Extended Unitarity (EU) states that the pi-pi pair should have the same phase variation as pi-pi…
The phase variation of the sigma -> pi-pi amplitude is accurately determined as a function of mass from BES II data for J/Psi -> omega-pi-pi. The determination arises from interference with the strong b1(1235)-pi amplitude. The observed…
We analyze the electromagnetic production of K^+Lambda and K^0Lambda near their production thresholds by using isobar models. In the K^+Lambda channel we show that the model can nicely describe the available experimental data. In the…
A precision measurement of absolute pi+p and pi-p elastic differential cross sections at incident pion laboratory kinetic energies from T_pi= 141.15 to 267.3 MeV is described. Data were obtained detecting the scattered pion and recoil…
We have previously [Phys. Rev. A 65, 043803 (2002)] analyzed adaptive measurements for estimating the continuously varying phase of a coherent beam, and a broadband squeezed beam. A real squeezed beam must have finite photon flux N and…
Using recent experimental evidence from E791 on the sigma meson in D \to 3\pi decays, we study the relevant couplings in D \to \sigma \pi and \sigma \to \pi\ pi within the accepted theoretical framework for non leptonic D decays. We also…
Continuum Schwinger function methods for the strong-interaction bound-state problem are used to arrive at a unified set of parameter-free predictions for the semileptonic $K\to \pi$, $D\to \pi, K$ and $D_s \to K$, $B_{(s)} \to \pi(K)$…
