We evaluate analytically the elastic $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude to two loops in chiral perturbation theory and give numerical values for the two $S$--wave scattering lengths and for the phase shift difference $\delta_0^0-\delta_1^1$.
We study the pion mass dependence of the rho(770) and f_0(600) masses and widths from one and two-loop unitarized Chiral Perturbation Theory. We show the consistency of one-loop calculations with lattice results for the M_rho, f_pi and the…
We match the known chiral perturbation theory representation of the pi pi scattering amplitude to two loops with a phenomenological description that relies on the Roy equations. On this basis, the corrections to Weinberg's low energy…
We evaluate the amplitude for gamma gamma --> pi^+ pi^- to two loops in the framework of chiral perturbation theory.The three new coupling constants that enter the result at this order in the low-energy expansion are estimated via resonance…
We present the scattering lengths for the $\pi\pi$ processes in the three flavour Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) framework at next-to-next-to-leading order. We then combine this calculation with the determination of the parameters from…
A Roy equation analysis of the available $\pi\pi$ phase shift data is performed with the $I=0$ S- wave scattering length $a^0_0$ in the range predicted by the one-loop standard chiral perturbation theory. A suitable dispersive framework is…
We present a calculation of the low energy constants describing the real and imaginary parts of the $K \to \pi \pi$ decay amplitudes $A_0$ and $A_2$. Leading and next leading order chiral perturbation theory is used and its applicability…
Using a variety of experimental results and lattice QCD calculations of $\pi\pi$ scattering lengths, while employing dispersive representations of the amplitude based on Roy equations, we compute the subthreshold parameters of this process.…
We evaluate the electric and magnetic polarizabilities of charged pions in the framework of chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order. This requires a two-loop evaluation of the Compton amplitude near threshold. We estimate the…
By using the Renormalization Group Equations in Chiral Perturbation Theory, one can calculate the double chiral logs that appear at two loops in any matrix element. We calculate them in the $\pi \pi$ scattering amplitude, where they…
We consider two-nucleon scattering close to threshold. Partial-wave amplitudes are obtained by an analytic extrapolation of subthreshold reaction amplitudes calculated in a relativistic formulation of chiral perturbation theory. The…
In this talk we demonstrate the results of application of the perturbative effective theory formalism developed in recent papers to the calculation of $\pi N$ elastic scattering amplitude. Restrictions on the contributing resonance…
We review two manifestations of chiral symmetry breaking in the pion sector. First, we examine the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude at threshold, which is completely determined by the chiral symmetry breaking part of the strong interaction,…
Based on a dispersive approach, we apply the inverse amplitude method to unitarize one-loop SU(2) and SU(3) Chiral Perturbation Theory. Numerically, we find that this unitarization technique yields the correct complex analytic structure in…
In these notes we present an introductory review on various topics about low energy pion physics (some kaon physics is discussed as well). Among these, we include the uses of analyticity and unitarity to describe partial wave amplitudes…
We discuss the power counting for effective field theories with narrow resonances near a two-body threshold. Close to threshold, the effective field theory is perturbative and only one combination of coupling constants is fine-tuned. In the…
We use one-loop chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) to compare lattice results for the K+ to pi+ pi0 decay amplitude with the experimental value. Three systematic effects: quenching, finite-volume effects, and the use of unphysical values of…
We match the results for the subthreshold parameters of pion-nucleon scattering obtained from a solution of Roy-Steiner equations to chiral perturbation theory up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order, to extract the pertinent low-energy…
Third order chiral perturbation theory accounts for the $\pi-N$ scattering phase shift data out to energies slightly below the position of the $\Delta$ resonance. The low energy constants are not accurately determined. Explicit inclusion of…
Heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) at one loop fails in relating the pion-nucleon amplitude in the physical region and for subthreshold kinematics due to loop effects enhanced by large low-energy constants. Studying the chiral…
