Pion-nucleon scattering in the P/sub 11/ channel

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
We present a parametrization of the ..pi..-N interaction in the P/sub 11/ channel in which the amplitude is the sum of a pole part and a non-pole part (t = t/sub pole/+t/sub np/) and satisfies two-body unitarity. Here t/sub pole/ has both the nucleon propagator and the ..pi..NN vertex dressed. The final amplitude fits the scattering length and low energy ..pi..-N phase shifts (T/sub ..pi..//sup lab/<300 MeV). We study the effect of a resonance in t/sub np/ on the phase shifts, ..pi..NN coupling constant and the off-shell behavior of the amplitude.
