Mass and width of the lowest resonance in QCD
read the original abstract
We demonstrate that near the threshold, the pi pi scattering amplitude contains a pole with the quantum numbers of the vacuum - commonly referred to as the sigma - and determine its mass and width within small uncertainties. Our derivation does not involve models or parametrizations, but relies on a straightforward calculation based on the Roy equation for the isoscalar S-wave.

CP asymmetries in charged meson decay to two pions
CP asymmetries for B+ to pi+ pi0, D+ to pi+ pi0, and K+ to pi+ pi0 are estimated in the Standard Model at roughly 3 times 10 to the -3, 10 to the -5, and 10 to the -6 using a unified formalism for isospin violation.
