Abstract:
The perturbative framework is developed for the calculation of the pi(+)pi(-) atom characteristics (energy level shift and lifetime) on the basis of the field-theoretical Bethe-Salpeter approach. A closed expression for the first-order correction to the pi(+)pi(-) atom lifetime has been obtained.
  • bound state: (pi+ pi-)
  • pi: hadronium
  • atom: lifetime
  • energy levels: correction
  • Bethe-Salpeter equation
  • perturbation theory: relativistic
  • pi pi: scattering length
  • atom: wave function
  • n-point function
