We re-investigate the impact of isospin violation for extracting the s-wave pion pion scattering phase shift difference delta_0(M_K) - delta_2(M_K) from K -> pi pi decays. Compared to our previous analysis in 2003, more precise experimental…
Including the meson-baryon (5 quark) intermediate states in a lattice simulation is challenging. However, it is important in order to obtain the correct energy eigenstates and to relate them to scattering phase shifts. Recent results for…
