Measurements of double-differential charged pion production cross-sections in interactions of 12 GeV/c protons on O_2 and N_2 thin targets are presented in the kinematic range 0.5 GeV/c < p_{\pi} < 8 GeV/c and 50 mrad < \theta_{\pi} < 250…
The $\pi N$ potential includes the t-channel exchanges of the scalar-mesons $\sigma$ and f_0, vector-meson $\rho$, tensor-mesons f_2 and f_2' and the Pomeron as well as the s- and u-channel exchanges of the nucleon N and the resonances…

In the last few years it has become possible to study low energy pi pi scattering in kaon decays to three pions, thanks to the high statistics measurement of K+- -> pi+- pi0 pi0 decays performed by the NA48/2 experiment at the CERN SPS. At…
We present the first direct evaluation of DI = 3/2 K -> pi pi matrix elements with the aim of determining all the low-energy constants at NLO in the chiral expansion. Our numerical investigation demonstrates that it is indeed possible to…
Recently, we developed a strategy to analyse the B -> pi pi,pi K data. We found that the B -> pi pi measurements can be accommodated in the Standard Model (SM) through large non-factorizable effects. On the other hand, our analysis of the…
The combination of simple dynamics, small number of available decay channels, and extremely well controlled radiative and loop corrections, make charged pion decays a sensitive means for testing the underlying symmetries and the…
Results are presented for an updated multichannel energy-dependent partial-wave analysis of $\pi N$ scattering. Our earlier work incorporated single-energy amplitudes for $\pi N \rightarrow \pi N$, $\gamma N \rightarrow \pi N$, $\pi N…
This article completes a former work where part of the O(p^6) low-energy constants entering in the pi pi scattering were estimated. Some resonance contributions were missed in former calculations and slight differences appeared with respect…
In the search for missing baryonic resonances, many analyses include data from a variety of pion- and photon-induced reactions. For elastic $\pi N$ scattering, however, usually the partial waves of the SAID or other groups are fitted,…
We investigate the $a_0(980)$ resonance within chiral effective field theory through a three-coupled-channel analysis, namely $\pi\eta$, $K\bar{K}$ and $\pi\eta'$. A global fit to recent lattice finite-volume energy levels from $\pi\eta$…

We study the processes e+e- --> K+ K- pi+pi-gamma, K+ K- pi0pi0gamma, and K+ K- K+ K-gamma, where the photon is radiated from the initial state. About 84000, 8000, and 4200 fully reconstructed events, respectively, are selected from 454…
An analysis is presented of elastic $P$-wave $\pi\pi$ phase shifts and inelasticities up to 2 GeV, aimed at identifying the corresponding $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ excited $\rho$ resonances and focusing on the $\rho(1250)$ vs. $\rho(1450)$…
We set up a general framework to describe $\pi\pi$ scattering below 1 GeV based on chiral low-energy expansion with possible spin-0 and 1 resonances. Partial wave amplitudes are obtained with the $N/D$ method, which satisfy unitarity,…
