New dispersion relations in the description of $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitudes

Understand

We present a set of once subtracted dispersion relations which implement crossing symmetry conditions for the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitudes below 1 GeV.

• We compare and discuss the results obtained for the once and twice subtracted dispersion relations, known as Roy's equations, for three $\pi\pi$ partial JI waves, S0, P and S2.
• We also show that once subtracted dispersion relations provide a stringent test of crossing and analyticity for $\pi\pi$ partial wave amplitudes, remarkably precise in the 400 to 1.1 GeV region, where the resulting uncertainties are significantly smaller than those coming from standard Roy's equations, given the same input.
