I=1/2 S -wave and P -wave Kπ scattering and the κ and K* resonances from lattice QCD

We present a lattice-QCD determination of the elastic isospin-$1/2$ $S$-wave and $P$-wave $K\ensuremath{\pi}$ scattering amplitudes as a function of the center-of-mass energy using L\"uscher's method. We perform global fits of $K$-matrix parametrizations to the finite-volume energy spectra for all irreducible representations with total momenta up to $\sqrt{3}\frac{2\ensuremath{\pi}}{L}$; this includes irreducible representations (irreps) that mix the $S$- and $P$-waves. Several different parametrizations for the energy dependence of the $K$-matrix are considered. We also determine the positions of the nearest poles in the scattering amplitudes, which correspond to the broad $\ensuremath{\ka…

P -wave nucleon-pion scattering amplitude in the Δ(1232) channel from lattice QCD

We determine the $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}(1232)$ resonance parameters using lattice QCD and the L\"uscher method. The resonance occurs in elastic pion-nucleon scattering with ${J}^{P}=3/{2}^{+}$ in the isospin $I=3/2$, $P$-wave channel. Our calculation is performed with ${N}_{f}=2+1$ flavors of clover fermions on a lattice with $L\ensuremath{\approx}2.8\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{fm}$. The pion and nucleon masses are ${m}_{\ensuremath{\pi}}=255.4(1.6)\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{MeV}$ and ${m}_{N}=1073(5)\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{MeV}$, respectively, and the strong decay channel $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\pi}N$ is found to be above the threshold.
