Description

The Roper resonance does not fit many quark model predictions or lattice QCD calculations. One reason could be the strong three-body dynamics for this channel. The analysis of the Roper with lattice QCD requires a hadronic coupled-channel amplitude in the two- and three-body channels.
As a first step, we develop an amplitude that consistently and unitarily includes the $\pi N$ and $\pi\pi N$ channels, which will allow us to map finite-volume energies from lattice QCD to the infinite-volume amplitude using the finite-volume unitarity (FVU) approach. Available partial-wave data in the Roper and the isobar sub-channels are described, allowing for the most precise pole determination of the Roper resonance to date.
