We present technical details of the evaluation of the elastic pi-pi scattering amplitude to two loops in chiral perturbation theory. In particular, we elaborate on the renormalization procedure at the two-loop order and on the evaluation of…
New results are reported from a measurement of $\pi^0$ electroproduction near threshold using the $p(e,e^{\prime} p)\pi^0$ reaction. The experiment was designed to determine precisely the energy dependence of $s-$ and $p-$wave…
The reaction $\gamma p \to \pi^0 p$ is investigated in the energy range above the resonance region. The amplitudes include the leading Regge singularities in the cross-channel and correctly describe the differential cross section for beam…
Dai and Pennington have performed a comprehensive analysis of essentially all pion and kaon pair production data from two-photon collisions below 1.5 GeV, including all high statistics results from Belle, as well as the older data from Mark…
We calculate the amplitudes of the axion photoproduction off the nucleon, i.e., $\gamma N \to a N$, within the framework of chiral effective field theory. Several different types of contributions are simultaneously included in our…
Production of p-wave pions in nucleon-nucleon collisions is studied according to an improved power counting that embodies the constraints of chiral symmetry. Contributions from the first two non-vanishing orders are calculated. We find…
The chiral anomaly is a fundamental property of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). It governs the transition amplitudes for processes involving an odd number of Goldstone bosons of chiral symmetry breaking. In case of the coupling of three pions…
A model for the gamma p ----> pion+ pion- p reaction developed earlier is extended to account for all isospin channels. The model includes N, Delta(1232), N^*(1440) and N^*(1520) as intermediate baryonic states and the rho-meson as an…
The photoproduction of pion off nucleon is investigated within a dynamical coupled-channels approach based on the Juelich pi-N model, which has been quite successful in the description of pi-N to pi-N scattering for center-of-mass energies…
Large momentum transfer reactions such as pion production represent the frontier of Chiral Perturbation Theory and must be understood before more complex reactions can be considered. Pion production is also interesting in its own right, one…
We present a theoretical study of the radiative pion photoproduction on the nucleon ($\gamma N \to \pi N \gamma'$) in the $\De$-resonance region, with the aim to determine the magnetic dipole moment (MDM) of the $\Delta^+(1232)$. The study…
Photoproduction of neutral pions has been studied with the CBELSA/TAPS detector in the reaction $\gamma p\to p\pi^0$ for photon energies between 0.85 and 2.50 GeV. The $\pi^0$ mesons are observed in their dominant neutral decay mode:…
We have extended a model for the $\gamma N\to \pi\pi N$ reaction to virtual photons and selected the diagrams which have a $\Delta$ in the final state. The agreement found with the $\gamma_v p\to\Delta^0\pi^+$ and $\gamma_v…
We discuss the extended on-mass-shell scheme for manifestly Lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation theory. We present a calculation of pion photo- and electroproduction up to and including order $q^4$. The low-energy constants have…
CERN COMPASS plans measurements of gamma-pi and gamma-K interactions using 50-280 GeV pion (kaon) beams and a virtual photon target. Pion (kaon) polarizabilities and radiative transitions will be measured via Primakoff effect reactions such…
We consider pion electroproduction close to threshold for $Q^2$ in the region 1-10 GeV$^2$ on a nucleon target. The momentum transfer dependence of the S-wave multipoles at threshold, $E_{0+}$ and $L_{0+}$, is calculated in the chiral limit…
We present an exploratory calculation of the $I=2$ $\pi-\pi$ scattering amplitude at threshold using Wilson fermions in the quenched approximation, including all the required contractions. We find good agreement with the predictions of…
The processes $\gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\pi^0\pi^0$ and $\gamma\gamma\to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0$ are considered in Generalized Chiral Perturbation theory, in view of their potential sensitivity to the mechanism of spontaneous breaking of chiral…
I study an aspect of chiral perturbation theory (\chi PT) which enables one to ``bridge'' different reactions. That is, an operator fixed in one of the reactions can then be used to predict the other. For this purpose, I calculate the…
The amplitudes of the pion electroproduction from the nucleon are derived up to third order in the chiral effective theory including explicit $\Delta$(1232) >. The Q^2 evolutions of weighted integrals of amplitudes are presented.
