Abstract

The pionium lifetime is calculated in the framework of the quasipotential-constraint theory approach, including the sizable electromagnetic corrections. The framework of generalized chiral perturbation theory allows then an analysis of the lifetime value as a function of the pion S-wave scattering lengths with isospins I=0,2, the latter being dependent on the quark condensate value.
