The ab-initio understanding of hadronic three-body systems above threshold, such as exotic resonances or the baryon spectrum, requires the mapping of the finite-volume eigenvalue spectrum, produced in lattice QCD calculations, to the infinite volume. We present the first application of such a formalism to a physical system in form of three interacting positively charged pions. The results for the ground state energies agree with the available lattice QCD results by the NPLQCD collaboration at unphysical pion masses. Extrapolations to physical pion masses are performed using input from effective field theory. The excited energy spectrum is predicted. This demonstrates the feasibility to determine three-body amplitudes above threshold from lattice QCD, including resonance properties of axial mesons, exotics, and excited baryons.

  1. Emergence of the $\pi(1300)$ Resonance from Lattice QCD

    hep-lat 2025-10 conditional novelty 8.0

    Lattice QCD plus three-body scattering formalism yields a π(1300)-like pole at (1169±46)−i(62−62+168) MeV, consistent with experiment.

  2. The $a_1(1420)$ in a Unitary Coupled-Channel Three-Body Approach

    hep-ph 2026-06 conditional novelty 6.5

    Nine-channel unitary three-body fits to COMPASS lineshapes reproduce the a1(1420) enhancement by triangle singularity without requiring a genuine a1(1420) pole.

  3. Production Effects and Final-state Interactions in $\pi_1 \to 3\pi$

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    A Khuri-Treiman model with contact and one-pion-exchange production terms fits COMPASS's π1→3π freed-isobar data and produces a smooth 1.6 GeV structure in the extracted production strengths.

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Fitting a spectator-isobar three-body unitary amplitude to BESIII K0S K0S pi0 data yields poles at (1277±2±1)-i(12±1±0) MeV for f1(1285) and (1435±2±7)-i(40±2±1) MeV for f1(1420), with the latter traced to a K Kbar* q...

  5. Coupled-channel approach to isotensor $\pi\pi\pi$ scattering from lattice QCD

    hep-lat 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0

    The I=2 three-pion spectrum from lattice QCD is described by a repulsive rho-pi S-wave interaction, consistent with a leading-order effective Lagrangian.

  6. The $a_1(1420)$ in a Unitary Coupled-Channel Three-Body Approach

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Unitary coupled-channel three-body model fitted to COMPASS data reproduces the a1(1420) enhancement via triangle singularity, indicating no genuine resonance pole is required.

  7. Effects of Final State Interactions on Landau Singularities

    hep-ph 2024-07 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Triangle singularities mimicking resonances are analyzed in the presence of final-state rescattering using Landau equations and a scattering formalism enforcing two- and three-body unitarity.
