Abstract:
We have measured the cross section σ(e+eπ+πγ)\sigma(e^+e^-\to \pi^+\pi^- \gamma) at an energy W=mϕ=1.02W=m_\phi=1.02 GeV with the KLOE detector at the electron-positron collider DAΦ\PhiNE. From the dependence of the cross section on the invariant mass of the two-pion system, we extract σ(e+eπ+π)\sigma(e^+e^-\to \pi^+\pi^-) for the mass range 0.35<s<0.950.35<s<0.95 GeV2^2. From this result, we calculate the pion form factor and the hadronic contribution to the muon anomaly, aμa_\mu.
