Title: I = 3 Three-Pion Scattering Amplitude from Lattice QCD

Abstract

We analyze the spectrum of two- and three-pion states of maximal isospin obtained recently for isosymmetric QCD with pion mass M200MeV in Hörz and Hanlon, [Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 142002 (2019)]. Using the relativistic three-particle quantization condition, we find ~2σ evidence for a nonzero value for the contact part of the 3π+ ( I=3 ) scattering amplitude. We also compare our results to leading-order chiral perturbation theory. We find good agreement at threshold and some tension in the energy dependent part of the 3π+ scattering amplitude. We also find that the 2π+ ( I=2 ) spectrum is fit well by an s -wave phase shift that incorporates the expected Adler zero.
