We study two-to-two scattering amplitudes of a scalar particle of mass $m$. For simplicity, we assume the presence of $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry and that the particle is $\mathbb{Z}_2$ odd. We consider two classes of amplitudes: the fully…

We develop the phenomenological amplitude of the $\pi N \to \pi \pi N$ reaction describing the exchanges of $\Delta$ and $N_{*}$ along with the OPE mechanism. The contribution of the latter contains 4 independent low energy parameters (up…
We introduce a formalism for describing four-dimensional scattering amplitudes for particles of any mass and spin. This naturally extends the familiar spinor-helicity formalism for massless particles to one where these variables carry an…
We develop a numerical method to compute the probabilities of multiparticle production in weakly coupled scalar theories. Our technique is based on D.T. Son's semiclassical method of singular solutions. Applying it to the process $1 \to n$…
New formulae for the resonant scattering and the production amplitudes near an inelastic threshold are derived. It is shown that the Flatte formula, frequently used in experimental analyses, is not sufficiently accurate. Its application to…
We investigate the space of massive two-dimensional theories with a global U(N) symmetry and no bound states. Following S-matrix bootstrap principles, we establish rigorous bounds on the space of consistent $2 \rightarrow 2$ scattering…
The occurrence of zeros of 2 to n amplitudes at threshold in scalar theories is studied. We find a differential equation for the scalar potential, which incorporates all known cases where the 2 to n amplitudes at threshold vanish for all…
We study numerically classical collisions of waves in $\lambda\phi^4$ theory. These processes correspond to multiparticle scattering in the semiclassical regime. Parametrizing initial and final wavepackets by energy $E$ and particle numbers…
The 2 into n scattering with final particles at rest is discussed. The comparison with purely soft processes allows to identify symmetries responsible for vanishing of certain 2 into n amplitudes. Some examples are given.
In addition to the superconformal symmetry of the underlying Lagrangian, the scattering amplitudes in planar N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory exhibit a new, dual superconformal symmetry. We address the question of how powerful these symmetries…
