Abstract: We give an explicit description of the behaviour of the root number in the family given by twists of an elliptic curve $E$ by the rational values of a polynomial $f(T)$. In particular, we give a criterion (on $f$ depending on $E$) for the family to have a constant root number over $mathbbQ$. This completes a work of Rohrlich: we detail the behaviour of the root number when $E$ has bad reduction over $mathbb{Q}^{ab}$ and we treat the cases $j(E)=0,1728$ which were not considered previously.
