Studies on hadron interactions from lattice QCD are reviewed. The $S$-wave $\pi\pi$ scattering lengths of the I=0 and I=2 channels are extracted from various lattice determinations of low energy constants in $N_f=2$ chiral perturbation…
We show that the interplay of chiral effective field theory and lattice QCD can be used in the evaluation of so-called disconnected diagrams, which appear in the study of the isoscalar and isovector channels of pion-pion scattering and have…
In this paper, we present the full Lagrangian of mesons (pseudoscalars, vectors and axial-vectors) to $O(p^4)$ by using the explicit global chiral symmetry and hidden local symmetry in the chiral limit. In this approach, we see that there…
We use a nonperturbative approach which combines coupled channel Lippmann Schwinger equations with meson-meson potentials provided by the lowest order chiral Lagrangians. By means of one parameter, a cut off in the momentum of the loop…
We study the nature of the scalar D_0 meson from the viewpoint of chiral symmetry. With the linear representation of chiral symmetry, we construct the D pi scattering amplitude satisfying the chiral low-energy theorem, in which the D_0…
We construct an effective non-relativistic quantum field theory that describes bound states of pi+ pi- pairs and their hadronic decays. We then derive a general expression for the lifetime of the ground state at next-to-leading order in…
Low lying scalar resonances emerge as a necessary part to adjust chiral perturbation theory to experimental data once unitarity constraint is taken into consideration. I review recent progress made in this direction in a model independent…
The Compton scattering on a charged pion is studied using the dispersion relations. Unknown mass, full width and decay width into \gamma \gamma of the sigma meson are found from a fit to the experimental data for the process \gamma+\gamma…
Effective Chiral Lagrangian is derived from QCD in the framework of Field Correlator Method. It contains the effects of both confinement and chiral symmetry breaking due to a special structure of the resulting quark mass operator. It is…
We present a preliminary analysis of $I=1$ $\pi\,\pi$ scattering at the physical point. We make use of the stochastic variant of the distillation framework (also known as sLapH) to compute the relevant two-point correlation matrices using a…
The all--important consequence of Chiral Dynamics for $\pi \pi$ scattering is the Adler zero, which forces $\pi \pi$ amplitudes to grow asymptotically. The continuation of this subthreshold zero into the physical regions requires a…
The available experimental information is consistent with the Weinberg predictions for the threshold parameters of pi-pi-scattering. The data, however, only test those relations that are insensitive to the quark masses m_u and m_d. Recent…
I discuss low-energy pion-nucleon scattering in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. I argue that using this theoretical method one is able to handle the in some cases tremendous experimental accuracy (for the low partial waves). I…
We present a coupled-channel Lagrangian approach (GiM) to describe the $\pi N \to \pi N$, $2\pi N$ scattering in the resonance energy region. The $2\pi N$ production has been significantly improved by using the isobar approximation with…
We calculate the $T$-matrices of elastic pion-nucleon ($\pi N$) scattering up to fourth order in SU(3) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. The pertinent low-energy constants are determined by fitting to $\pi N$ phase shifts below 200…
In recent years, detailed studies of three-pion systems have become possible in lattice QCD. This has in turn led to interest in 3-to-3 scattering of pions in the chiral perturbation theory framework. In addition to being an interesting…
From recent analysis of the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude, it has been claimed that there exists a broad and light $\sigma$ meson. However, if this meson really exists, it must also appear in other observables such as the pion scalar form…
