Reconciling threshold and subthreshold expansions for pion–nucleon scattering

Heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) at one loop fails in relating the pion–nucleon amplitude in the physical region and for subthreshold kinematics due to loop effects enhanced by large low-energy constants. Studying the chiral convergence of threshold and subthreshold parameters up to fo...
