Pion damping width and pion spectral function in hot pion gas
Abstract
The temperature behaviour of the pion width in the hadronic phase is investigated in the framework of the NJL model. The contribution to the width from the pion-pion collision is considered with a scalar sigma-meson as an intermediate state. It is shown that the pion width significantly broadens at T>0.1 GeV. Using the two-step iteration method, suggested by Kadanoff and Baym, the pion spectral function in a hot pion gas is calculated at different temperatures.
