Double chiral logs in the ππ scattering amplitude
نویسنده
چکیده
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 ππ scattering amplitude, where they represent the potentially largest two loop contribution. It is shown that their correction is reasonably small. ♯ Work supported in part by Schweizerischer Nationalfonds/ Bundesamt für Bildung und Wissenschaft (BBW)/ EEC Human Capital and Mobility Program.

I calculate the leading logarithmic contributions up to two-loop order of the octet part of the K0 → ππ amplitude. This sector of the weak chiral Lagrangian is believed to be the main source of the enhancement of the I = 0 relative to the I = 2 K0 → ππ amplitude, the so-called ∆I = 1/2 rule. I discuss the procedure of chiral extrapolations of lattice data specific to K → ππ decays and study the...

I discuss recent progress in our understanding of the ππ scattering amplitude at low energy thanks to the combined use of chiral perturbation theory and dispersion relations. I also comment on the criticism raised by Peláez and Ynduráin on this work.
متن کاملTheory of Ππ Scattering
The study of ππ scattering is a classical subject in the field of strong interactions: it is a scattering process that may occur at very low energy, far away from the resonance region, and it only involves the quasi–Goldstone bosons of the chiral symmetry of strong interactions. If we stay at low energy, we could expect its dynamics to be strongly constrained by chiral symmetry: as Weinberg sho...
