In this paper we perform an amplitude analysis of essentially all published pion and kaon pair production data from two photon collisions below 1.5 GeV. This includes all the high statistics results from Belle, as well as older data from…
After years of silence we should witness in the rest of this decade and in the next decade the revival of kaon flavour physics. This is not only because of the crucial measurements of the branching ratios for the rare decays…
In 1993 the Nijmegen group published the results of energy-dependent partial-wave analyses (PWAs) of the nucleon-nucleon (NN) scattering data for laboratory kinetic energies below Tlab=350 MeV (PWA93). In this talk some general aspects, but…
Additivity of Breit-Wigner phases has been proposed to describe interfering resonances in partial waves in $\pi\pi$ scattering. This assumption leads to an expression for partial wave amplitudes that involves products of Breit-Wigner…
Combining large $N_C$ techniques and partial wave dispersion theory to analyze the $\pi\pi$ scattering, without relying on any explicit resonance lagrangian, some interesting results are derived: (a) a general KSRF relation including the…
A unified Chew-Mandelstam description of single-pion photoproduction data, together with pion- and eta-hadroproduction data, has been extended to include measurements carried out over the last decade. We consider photo-decay amplitudes…
We review some of the recent achievements of the Joint Physics Analysis Center, a theoretical collaboration with ties to experimental collaborations, that aims to provide amplitudes suitable for the analysis of the current and forthcoming…
Magnetic particle imaging is an emerging quantitative imaging modality, exploiting the unique nonlinear magnetization phenomenon of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles for recovering the concentration. Traditionally the…
A unitary multi-channel approach, first developed by the Carnegie-Mellon- Berkeley group, is applied to extract the pole positions, masses, and partial decay widths of nucleon resonances. Input used are the partial wave amplitudes for the…

The $\pi$N forward scattering data are analyzed using an expansion method, where the invariant amplitudes are represented by expansions satisfying the forward dispersion relations. The experimental errors of the data are taken into account…
The present dissertation covers two related research projects. The first topic was initiated with the ultimate goal of observing quantum degeneracy in ultrashort free electron pulses. This constitutes a thorough theoretical analysis of the…
There have been significant developments in the period estimation tools and methods for analysing high energy pulsars in the past few decades. However, these tools lack well-standardised methods for calculating uncertainties in period…
A truncated partial wave analysis for the photoproduction of two pseudoscalar mesons on a nucleon is discussed with respect to the determination of a complete set of observables. For the selection of such a set we have applied a criterion…
We complete and improve the fits to experimental $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitudes, both at low and high energies, that we performed in the previous papers of this series. We then verify that the corresponding amplitudes satisfy analyticity…
A new neutron polarimeter for measuring the neutron's electric form factor was designed and constructed to complement the A1 spectrometer setup at the Mainz Microtron (MAMI). The design is based on a previous polarimeter with significant…
