Abstract

Final state radiation in the process e+eπ+πe^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^- is considered for the cuts used in the analysis of KLOE data at large angles. By means of a Monte Carlo event generator FEVA, effects of non-pointlike behaviour of pions are estimated in the framework of Resonance Perturbation Theory. An additional complication related with the ϕ\phi meson intermediate state is taken into account and the corresponding contributions (the direct decay ϕπ+πγ\phi\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma and the double resonance decay ϕρ±ππ+πγ\phi\to\rho^\pm\pi^\mp\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma) are added to FEVA. A method to test effects of non-pointlike behaviour of pions in a model-independent way is proposed.
