Next to Leading Order Chiral Perturbation theory of $K\pi \to \pi$ and $K\to \pi \pi$ amplitudes

Abstract

It is shown that the low energy coefficients of the next-to-leading order (NLO) chiral perturbation theory needed to determine $\Delta I=1/2$, $K\to \pi \pi$ decay amplitudes can be fixed by calculating $K\pi \to \pi$ amplitudes on lattice. Unlike using NLO $K\to \pi \pi$ amplitudes proposed by Laiho and Soni, simulating $K\pi \to \pi$ transitions on lattice does not require evaluations of s-channel disconnected diagrams which have been an obstacle in practice.
