We present a novel analysis of the $\pi N$ scattering amplitude in covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory up to ${\cal O}(p^3)$ within the extended-on-mass-shell renormalization scheme and including the $\Delta(1232)$ explicitly in the…
We calculate the s-wave strong interaction $\Lambda$$\pi$ phase shift at the $\Xi$ mass taking into account contributions from the ${{\frac{1}{2}}}^{-}$ and ${{\frac{3}{2}}}^{-}$ $\Sigma$ resonances. We find the S-wave phase shift to be…

The measurement of the pion-nucleon scattering lengths constitutes a high-precision test of the methods of Chiral Pertubation Theory, which is the low-energy approach of QCD. The pion-nucleon s-wave scattering lengths are related to the…
Low energy theorems are derived for the coefficients of the effective range expansion in s-wave nucleon-nucleon scattering valid to leading order in an expansion in which both $m_\pi$ and $1/a$ (where $a$ is the scattering length) are…
