ππ P-wave resonant scattering from lattice QCD

The ππ scattering length from maximally twisted mass lattice QCD

We calculate the s-wave pion-pion scattering length in the isospin I = 2 channel in lattice QCD for pion masses ranging from 270 MeV to 485 MeV using two flavors of maximally twisted mass fermions at a lattice spacing of 0.086 fm. Additionally, we check for lattice artifacts with one calculation at a finer lattice spacing of 0.067 fm. We use chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order t...

Modeling interactions for resonant p-wave scattering.

In view of recent experiments on ultracold polarized fermions, the zero-range potential approach is generalized to situations where two-body scattering is resonant in the p-wave channel. We introduce a modified scalar product which reveals a deep relation between the geometry of the Hilbert space and the interaction. This formulation is used to obtain a simple interpretation for the transfer ra...

K→(ππ)(I=2) decay amplitude from lattice QCD.

We report on the first realistic ab initio calculation of a hadronic weak decay, that of the amplitude A(2) for a kaon to decay into two π mesons with isospin 2. We find ReA(2)=(1.436±0.063(stat)±0.258(syst))10(-8) GeV in good agreement with the experimental result and for the hitherto unknown imaginary part we find ImA(2)=-(6.83±0.51(stat)±1.30(syst))10(-13) GeV. Moreover combining our result ...
