The hadronic width of the ground state of pionic hydrogen has been redetermined by X-ray spectroscopy to be $$\varGamma ^{\pi \mathrm {H}}_{1s}=(856\,\pm \,16_\mathrm{stat}\,\pm \,22_\mathrm{sys})$$ Γ 1 s π H = ( 856 ± 16 stat ± 22 sys )  meV. The experiment was performed at the high-intensity low-energy pion beam of the Paul Scherrer Institute by using the cyclotron trap and a high-resolution Bragg spectrometer with spherically bent crystals…

An analysis of the pion-nucleon σ-term σ_{πN} using six ensembles with 2+1+1-flavor highly improved staggered quark action generated by the MILC Collaboration shows that the leading contribution to the isoscalar scalar charge comes from Nπ and Nππ states.
What has been learnt from the analysis of the low-energy pion-nucleon data during the past three decades?
Over twenty-five years ago, two analyses of the pion-nucleon (πN) data at low energy (i.e., for pion laboratory kinetic energy T ≤ 100 MeV) reported on the departure of the extracted scattering
