This report presents an investigation of the pion-nucleon elastic scattering in low energy region using a production representation of the partial wave $S$ matrix. The phase shifts are separated into contributions from poles and branch…
The model-independent analysis of the S- and P-wave pi-pi phase shifts was carried out. This analysis was based on the using of the Roy equations only and all available experimental data from the threshold up to dipion mass 1GeV. The S-wave…
We explore the nature of the$\sigma$ or $f_0(600)$ meson using large $N_c$ technique, assuming that the $\sigma$ pole dominates low energy physics in the IJ=00 channel. We trace the $N_c$ dependence of the $\sigma$ pole position using [1,1]…
We discuss the determination of the $f_0(500)$ (or $\sigma$) resonance by analytic continuation through Pad\'e approximants of the $\pi\pi$-scattering amplitude from the physical region to the pole in the complex energy plane. The aim is to…
We show that two P11 nucleon resonance poles near the pi Delta threshold, obtained in several analyses, are stable against large variations of parameters within a dynamical coupled-channels analysis based on meson-exchange mechanisms. By…
We systematically reconsider, within an improved "analytic K-matrix model", the extraction of the sigma = f_0(600) and f_0(980) masses, widths and hadronic couplings using new Ke4 = K-->pi-pi e nu_e data on pi-pi phase shift below 390 MeV…
CERN measurements of pi(-)p->pi(-)pi(+)n on polarized target at 17.2 GeV/c enable experimental determination of partial wave production amplitudes below 1080 MeV. The measured S-wave transversity amplitudes provide evidence for a narrow…
In this talk I summarize a recently proposed mechanism to understand pi pi scattering to 1 GeV. The model is motivated by the 1/Nc expansion to QCD, and includes a current algebra contact term and resonant pole exchanges. Chiral symmetry…
A separable potential formalism is used to describe the $\pi\pi$ and $K\overline{K}$ interactions in the scalar-isoscalar states in the energy range from the $\pi\pi$ threshold up to 1.4 GeV. Introduction of relativistic propagators into a…
We present a new model independent amplitude analysis of reaction pi(-)p->pi(-) pi(+)n measured at CERN at 17.2 GeV/c on polarized target using a Monte Carlo method for dipion mass 580-1080 MeV. The two solutions for measured moduli…
Threshold expansions of the $\pi\pi$ and $K\overline{K}$ spin 0 and isospin 0 scattering amplitudes are performed. Scattering lengths, effective ranges and so--called volume parameters are evaluated. Good agreement with the existing…
It is shown that the linear correlation relates the S-wave phase shifts from the threshold up to dipion mass 900 MeV. By using this correlation at the solution of the Roy equations, the accuracy of determination of S-wave lengths is…
When a resonance lies near the threshold of a heavier channel, an interesting feature can occur. The paradigmatic example employed here is the scalar isoscalar $f_0(980)$ resonance that couples to the lighter $\pi\pi$ and heavier $K\bar{K}$…
We discuss how the a_0(980), f_0(980), K^*_0(1430) and particularly the broad sigma resonance can be understood within a coupled channel framework, which includes all light two-pseudoscalar thresholds together with constraints from Adler…
K-matrix analysis of the $00^{++}$ wave is performed in the channels $\pi\pi,~K\bar K,~\eta\eta$ and $4\pi$ in the mass region up to 1550 MeV. The fit is based on the following data: $p\bar p ~(at~rest)\to \pi^0\pi^0\pi^0$,…
The available data on the a0(980), f0(980), f0(1300) and K*0(1430) mesons are fitted as a distorted 0++ nonet using only 6 parameters and a very general model. This includes all light two-pseudoscalar thresholds, constraints from Adler…
We comment on a recent paper by Weiser et al. [Phys. Rev. C {\bf 54}, 1930 (1996)]. The authors have performed a single-energy analysis of $\pi^+ p$ scattering data at 68.3 MeV, finding a value for the $S_{31}$ phase shift about 1^o smaller…
Using the fact that the contribution of the states with isospin I=0 in the difference of the amplitudes of the processes \gamma \gamma->\pi^+\pi^- and \gamma\gamma->\pi^0\pi^0 is very small, we have analyzed the dispersion sum rules for the…
