We analyze the Roy equations for the lowest partial waves of elastic pi pi scattering and demonstrate that the two S-wave scattering lengths a_0^0 and a_0^2 are the essential parameters in the low energy region: Once these are known, the available experimental information determines the behaviour near threshold to within remarkably small uncertainties. An explicit numerical representation for the energy dependence of the S- and P-waves is given and it is shown that the threshold parameters of the D- and F-waves are also fixed very sharply in terms of a_0^0 and a^2_0. In agreement with earlier work, which is reviewed in some detail, we find that the Roy equations admit physically acceptable solutions only within a band of the (a_0^0,a_0^2) plane. We show that the data on the reactions e+e- -> pi pi and tau -> pi pi nu reduce the width of this band quite significantly. Furthermore, we discuss the relevance of the decay K -> pi pi e nu in restricting the allowed range of a_0^0, preparing the grounds for an analysis of the forthcoming precision data on this decay and on pionic atoms. We expect these to reduce the uncertainties in the two basic low energy parameters very substantially, so that a meaningful test of the chiral perturbation theory predictions will become possible.

Revisiting Roy-Steiner-equation analysis of pion-kaon scattering from lattice QCD data
A Roy-Steiner dispersive analysis of lattice QCD pion-kaon data at m_pi = 391 MeV finds the κ resonance at (966-i198) MeV, a broad resonance rather than the virtual-state pole reported in K-matrix analyses.

A dispersive method to study CP asymmetries in hadronic multi-body $B$ decays
The large localized CP asymmetry in B±→K±π+π− arises from a dip in the CP-conserving rate, not enhanced CP violation, and the non-resonant isospin-2 S-wave is essential — per a 13-parameter dispersive fit to LHCb's an...

The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon in the Standard Model: an update
The updated SM prediction for the muon anomalous magnetic moment is 116592033(62)×10^{-11}, showing no tension with the experimental average of 38(63)×10^{-11}.

Role of electromagnetic corrections in the $\pi\pi$ distributions of $\psi^\prime \to J/\psi \pi \pi$
Electromagnetic corrections alter the π⁺π⁻-threshold cusp magnitude by ~2–3% in ψ′→J/ψπ⁰π⁰, so they must be included for precision extraction of S-wave ππ scattering lengths.

CP violation studies at Super Tau-Charm Facility
A future Super Tau-Charm Facility is projected to test CP violation in hyperon, tau, and charm decays at 1e-4 to 1e-3 sensitivities and improve the kaon CPT mass-difference limit tenfold.
