πXi phase shifts and CP Violation in {ΩtoπXi} Decay

In the study of CP violation signals in ${\O}\to\pi\Xi$ nonleptonic decays, the strong $J$=3/2 $P$ and $D$ phase shifts for the $\pi\Xi$ final-state interactions are needed. These phases are calculated using an effective Lagrangian model, including $\Xi$, $\Xi^*$(1530), $\rho$ and the $\sigma$-term, in the intermediate states. The $\sigma$-term is calculated in terms of the scalar form factor of the baryon.
