The pi-N interaction is studied within a meson-exchange model and in a coupled-channels approach which includes the channels pi-N, eta-N, as well as three effective pi-pi-N channels namely rho-N, pi-Delta, and sigma-N. Starting out from an…

The $\rho\rho$ scattering has been studied by two groups which both claimed a dynamical generated scalar meson, most likely to be $f_0(1370)$. Here we investigate the influence of coupled-channels of pseudoscalar mesons, i.e., $\pi\pi$ and…
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,…

Considering analyticity, unitarity and an influence of coupled channels, experimental data on the isovector P-wave of pion-pion scattering was analyzed to study rho-like mesons below 1900 MeV. The analysis indicates evidently that in the…
The $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude with regular analytical properties in the $s$ complex plane has been constructed. It describes simultaneously the data on the $\pi\pi$ scattering, $\phi\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ decay and $\pi\pi\to K\bar K$…

We generalize our previous work on \pi\pi scattering to K\pi scattering, and re-analyze the experiment data of K\pi scattering below 1.6 GeV. Without any free parameter, we explain K\pi I=3/2 S-wave phase shift very well by using t-channel…
We employ a variational basis with a number of $\bar{q}q$ and $\pi\pi$ lattice interpolating fields with quantum numbers of the $\rho$ resonance to extract the discrete energy spectrum in a finite volume. In the elastic region, this…
