Abstract
We present the pion-pion elastic scattering amplitude at finite temperature to one-loop in chiral perturbation theory. The thermal scattering amplitude properly defined allows to generalize the perturbative unitarity relation to the T 0 0 case. Our result provides a model independent prediction of an enhanced pion-pion low-energy phase shift with the temperature and it has physical applications within the context of relativistic heavy ion collisions.
