After Chew, Goldberger, Low and Nambu 1 l (referred to as CGLN) many investigations have been carried out for pionnucleon scattering and the related processes, by using the unsubtracted pion-nucleon dispersion relation.Usually the imaginary parts, IrnA <±J and ImB<±MJ have been approximated only by the contribution from 33-resonance. The pion-nucleon scattering amplitude in this approximation _gives too large a contribution to the S-wave helicity amplitude f~+l 0 (t) for the NN~2n process, as. shown, for example, by the analyses of nucleon-nucleon scattering. 2 J As a method of suppressing such a large contribution, a kind of renormalization of f$+l 0 (0) =Co is attempted as a result of either the Cini-Fubini approximation to the Mandelstam representational or subtraction at t = 0 to the dispersion relation of f++Jo(t)Y By this procedure Co is reduced from 42 for the CGLN with 33-approximation to "-'0.tJ On leave of absence from Department of Physics, Nagoya University, Nagoya.*J The notation is the same as that in reference 1).On the other hand, Co is closely related with the subtraction constant of the pionnucleon dispersion relation in the forward direction. Menotti 5 J estimated Co from a subtraction constant of the pion-nucleon dispersion relation and obtained -1.9 ±3, which is consistent with the result of nucleon-nucleon scattering.In any case, such a small value for Co means that a new large constant contribution is introduced for the CGLN with 33approximation by adjustment of subtraction constants. In this note, we reexamine a similar problem by taking into account the contribution from higher pion-nucleon resonances, since the experimental results have rapidly increased very recently.As a first step, we estimate Co phenomenologically taking into account the experimental pion-nucleon scattering data. By extracting the S-wave amplitude with respect to the crossed t channel from the CGLN equation and taking the limit t_,.O, we obtain the formula = +l_ \ ds' P'W' 2 Q (s'-m 2 -1) n J s 1 -m 2 -1 m 1 2m (m+1) 2 Xa\;;;J (s')/4n+A<+l(m 2 +1, 0)/4n J, (1) where we use the neutral pion mass as the unit of masses and a~;J;l denotes the total nN cross section. The right-hand side of Eq. (1) can be estimated experimentally except for the last term A<+l(m 2 +1, 0) which is written as = =~ \ ds' IrnA<+l(s1 0). n J s 1 -m 2 -1 ' (2) <•+1)2 at
