Electromagnetic corrections to the hadronic phase shifts in low energy pi+p elastic scattering

Abstract

We calculate the s and p-wave electromagnetic corrections which must be subtracted from the nuclear phase shifts obtained from the analysis of low energy pi+p elastic scattering data, in order to obtain hadronic phase shifts. We compare our results with earlier calculations and estimate the uncertainties in the corrections.
