Evidence for a structure at pi+pi- mass threshold is observed in the invariant mass spectrum of pi 0 pi 0 with a statistical significance of around 3.5 sigma, which is consistent with the cusp effect as predicted by the nonrelativistic effective field theory. After introducing the amplitude for describing the cusp effect, the pi pi scattering length combination a0 - a2 is determined to be 0.226 10.060stat 10.013syst, which is in good agreement with theoretical calculation of 0.2644 10.0051.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessElectromagnetic CorrectionsPi3-Pi(0)TofArticle130836898113WOS:0009823188000102-s2.0-85149669098N/A10.1103/PhysRevLett.130.081901Q1
