The Inverse Amplitude Method in $\pi \pi$ Scattering in Chiral Perturbation Theory to Two Loops

Abstract

The inverse amplitude method is used to unitarize the two loop $\pi \pi$ scattering amplitudes of SU(2) Chiral Perturbation Theory in the $I=0,J=0$, $I=1,J=1$ and $I=2,J=0$ channels. An error analysis in terms of the low energy one-loop parameters ${\bar{l}}_{1,2,3,4,}$ and existing experimental data is undertaken. A comparison to standard resonance saturation values for the two loop coefficients ${\bar{b}}_{1,2,3,4,5,6}$ is also carried out. Crossing violations are quantified and the convergence of the expansion is discussed.
