Abstract

The calculation of the I=2 pion scattering length in quenched lattice QCD is revisited. The calculation is carried out with the Wilson fermion action employing Lüscher's finite size scaling method at β=5.9, 6.1, and 6.3 corresponding to the range of lattice spacing a 0.12 - 0.07 fm. We obtain in the continuum limit a0mπ= -0.0410(69), which is consistent with the prediction of chiral perturbation theory a0mπ=-0.0444(10).
