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…

We discuss the Pad\'e approximation to the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitudes in 1--loop chiral perturbation theory. The approximation restores unitarity and can reproduce the correct resonance poles, but the approximation violates crossing…
A unitary framework based on the Bakamjian-Thomas construction of relativistic quantum mechanics is used to describe two-pion scattering from threshold to 1400 MeV. The framework properly includes unitarity cuts for one-, two- and…
The quenched chiral logs are examined on a $16^3 \times 28$ lattice with Iwasaki gauge action and overlap fermions. The pion decay constant $f_{\pi}$ is used to set the lattice spacing, $a = 0.200(3) {\rm fm}$. With pion mass as low as…
Earlier work suggested that the in-medium $\pi N$ threshold isovector amplitude $b_1(\rho)$ gets renormalized in pionic atoms by about 30% away from its $\rho=0$ free-space value, relating such renormalization to the leading low-density…
We show how one-loop corrections to scattering amplitudes of scalars and gauge bosons can be obtained from tree amplitudes in one higher dimension. Starting with a complete tree-level scattering amplitude of n+2 particles in five…
We calculate the logarithmic corrections to the matrix elements for $K^+\to\pi^+$ and $K\to$vacuum (which are used on the lattice to determine $K\to\pi\pi$ amplitudes), in one-loop quenched and unquenched Chiral Perturbation Theory. We find…
