Why study πN→ππN? • At c. m. energies below 2 Ge. V, this is the dominant inelastic reaction in πN scattering • Drawbacks – analysis of 3 -body final states is complicated (many partial waves are involved) • There remains a strong need for detailed new measurements in all charge channels!

Parametrization of amplitudes My parametrization of PW amplitudes satisfies unitarity and time-reversal invariance. The total partial-wave S-matrix has the form where the background matrix B is unitary but not generally symmetric: The matrix R is both unitary and symmetric. It is a generalization of the multichannel BW form to include multiple resonances. It is constructed from a Kmatrix:
