Determination of s- and p-wave I = 1/2 Kπ scattering amplitudes in Nf = 2 + 1 lattice QCD
The elastic I=1/2, s- and p-wave kaon-pion scattering amplitudes are calculated using a single ensemble of anisotropic lattice QCD gauge field configurations with Nf=2+1 flavors of dynamical Wilson-clover fermions at mπ=230 MeV. A large spatial extent of L=3.7 fm enables a good energy resolution whi...

| Summary: | The elastic I=1/2, s- and p-wave kaon-pion scattering amplitudes are calculated using a single ensemble of anisotropic lattice QCD gauge field configurations with Nf=2+1 flavors of dynamical Wilson-clover fermions at mπ=230 MeV. A large spatial extent of L=3.7 fm enables a good energy resolution while partial wave mixing due to the reduced symmetries of the finite volume is treated explicitly. The p-wave amplitude is well described by a Breit–Wigner shape with parameters mK⁎/mπ=3.808(18) and gK⁎KπBW=5.33(20) which are insensitive to the inclusion of d-wave mixing and variation of the s-wave parametrization. An effective range description of the near-threshold s-wave amplitude yields mπa0=−0.353(25). |
