We discuss convergence issues as well as short distance constraints on the deuteron wave functions based on chiral perturbation theory relevant to pion deuteron scattering. Non-analytical terms arise in the multiple scattering series for…
The analysis of hadronic interactions with effective field theory techniques is complicated by the appearance of a large number of low-energy constants, which are usually fitted to data. On the other hand, the large-$N_c$ limit imposes…
This work implements the combined BChPT and 1/Nc expansions for pion-nucleon elastic scattering. The effective theory is based on the baryon sector dynamical spin-flavor SU(4) symmetry emergent in the large Nc limit, whose breaking is…
We study the dependence on the number of colors of the leading pi pi scattering amplitude in chiral dynamics. We demonstrate the existence of a critical number of colors for and above which the low energy pi pi scattering amplitude computed…
We extend the 1/N_c expansion meson-baryon scattering formalism to cases in which the final state contains more than two particles. We first show that the leading-order large N_c processes proceed through resonant intermediate states (e.g.,…
Chiral perturbation theory, the low energy effective theory of the strong interactions for the light pseudoscalar degrees of freedom, is based on effective Lagrangian techniques and is an expansion in the powers of the external momenta and…
We show that the latest and very precise dispersive data analyses require a large and very unnat- ural fine-tuning of the 1/Nc expansion at Nc = 3 if the f_0(600) and K(800) light scalar mesons are to be considered predominantly…
Talk given at QCD 97, Montpellier, July 1997. In the first part of the talk, I presented a review of the results for the light quark masses obtained on the basis of chiral perturbation theory. As this material is described elsewhere, the…
In this talk I summarize a recently proposed mechanism to understand pi pi scattering to 1 GeV. The model is motivated by the 1/Nc expansion to QCD, and includes a current algebra contact term and resonant pole exchanges. Chiral symmetry…
We compare the dependences on the number of colors of the leading pion pion scattering amplitudes using the single index quark field and two index quark fields. These are seen to have different relationships to the scattering amplitudes…
Combining large $N_C$ techniques and partial wave dispersion theory to analyze the $\pi\pi$ scattering, without relying on any explicit resonance lagrangian, some interesting results are derived: (a) a general KSRF relation including the…
In the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory, we give thIn the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory, we give the chiral expansion for the $\pi N \to \pi \pi N$ threshold amplitudes $D_1$ and $D_2$ to quadratic…
Lattice QCD studies of hadron-hadron interactions are performed by computing the energy levels of the system in a finite box. The shifts in energy levels proportional to inverse powers of the volume are related to scattering parameters in a…
A recently proposed set of sum rules, based on the pion-Kaon scattering amplitudes and their crossing-symmetric conjugates are analysed in detail. A key role is played by the $l=0$ $\pi\pi\to K\overline K$ amplitude which requires an…
Using the method of asymptotic sum rules we estimated the size of $O(m_s p_\pi^4)$ and $O(m_s^2 p_\pi^2)$ corrections to $\pi K$ scattering amplitude in large $N_c$ limit. These corrections arise from the sixth order effective chiral…
We extend the 1/N_c meson-baryon scattering formalism to pi N to multi-pi N case. We first show that the leading-order large N_c processes proceed through resonant intermediate states (e.g., rho N or pi Delta). We find that the pole…
A review on the requirements of chiral symmetry on effective quark models is presented. The connection between the pion Salpeter amplitude and the mass gap equation is discussed. Hadronic scattering, notably, $\pi\pi$ scattering is…
The chiral expansion of nucleon properties such as mass, magnetic moment, and magnetic polarizability are investigated in the framework of chiral perturbation theory, with and without the heavy-baryon expansion. The analysis makes use of a…
We make use of the chiral two-loop representation of the pi K scattering amplitude [J. Bijnens, P. Dhonte and P. Talavera, JHEP 0405 (2004) 036] to investigate the isospin odd scattering length at next-to-next-to-leading order in the SU(3)…
A $1/\N$ expansion of the chiral Lagrangian for baryons is formulated and used to study the low-energy dynamics of baryons interacting with the pion nonet $\pi$, $K$, $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$ in a combined expansion in chiral symmetry…
