Abstract: (APS)
A recent measurement of the level shift in the π−p atom obtains a value in apparent contradiction with the currently accepted π−p scattering length. The inferred equivalence of level shift and scattering length involved the use of the Deser-Goldberger-Baumann-Thirring formula. We have checked this formula for the case of π−p atoms and find that it is accurate well beyond the degree of the present discrepancy. Thus the disagreement between the recent experiment and previous analyses persists.
