Decays of the $\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ atom

We construct an effective non-relativistic quantum field theory that describes bound states of pi+ pi- pairs and their hadronic decays. We then derive a general expression for the lifetime of the ground state at next-to-leading order in isospin breaking. Chiral perturbation theory allows one to rela...
