Abstract
The aim of this work is to develop a set of programs for calculation the scattering amplitudes of the elementary particles, as well as automating the calculation of amplitudes using the appropriate computer algebra systems (Mathematica, Form, Cadabra). The paper considers the process of pion-pion scattering in the framework of the effective Nambu-Iona-Lasinio model with two quark flavours. The Package-X for Mathematica is used to calculate the scattering amplitude (starting with the calculation of Feynman diagrams and ending with the calculation of Feynman integrals in the one-loop approximation). The loop integrals are calculated in general kinematics in Package-X using the Feynman parametrization technique. A simple check of the program is made: for the case with zero temperature, the scattering lengths (a_0 = 0.147) and (a_2 = -0.0475) are calculated and the total cross section is constructed. The results are compared with other models as well as with experimental data.
