The pi+ pi+ scattering length from maximally twisted mass lattice QCD

Feng, Xu, Jansen, Karl, Renner, Dru B.

Understand

We calculate the s-wave pion-pion scattering length in the isospin I=2 channel in lattice QCD for pion masses ranging from 270 Mev to 485 Mev using two flavors of maximally twisted mass fermions at a lattice spacing of 0.086 fm.

Additionally, we check for lattice artifacts with one calculation at a finer lattice spacing of 0.067 fm.
We use chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order to extrapolate our results.
At the physical pion mass, we find m_pi a_pipi(I=2)=-0.04385(28)(38) for the scattering length, where the first error is statistical and the second is our estimate of several systematic effects.
