Title | The quark-mass dependence of elastic K\pi scattering from QCD | ||||
Abstract | We present a determination of the isospin-$\frac{1}{2}$ elastic $\pi K$ scattering amplitudes in $S$ and $P$ partial waves using lattice Quantum Chromodynamics. The amplitudes, constrained for a large number of real-valued energy points, are obtained as a function of light-quark mass, corresponding to four pion masses between 200 and 400 MeV. Below the first inelastic threshold, the $P$-wave scattering amplitude is dominated by a single pole singularity that evolves from being a stable bound-state at the highest quark mass into a narrow resonance that broadens as the pion and kaon masses are reduced. As in experiment, the $S$-wave amplitude does not exhibit an obviously resonant behavior, but instead shows a slow rise from threshold, which is not inconsistent with the presence of a $\kappa$/$K_0^\star(700)$-like resonance at the considered quark masses. As has been found in analyses of experimental scattering data, simple analytic continuations into the complex energy plane of precisel | ||||
