In this paper, we present a dispersive analysis of the double-virtual photon-photon scattering to two pions up to 1.5 GeV. Through unitarity, this process is very sensitive to hadronic final state interaction. For the $s$-wave, we use a…

A significant discrepancy exists between experiment and calculations of the muon's magnetic moment. We find that standard formulas for the hadronic vacuum polarization term have overlooked pionic states known to exist. Coulomb binding alone…

We calculate the $\pi^0\to \gamma^*\gamma^*$ transition form factor ${\cal F}_{\pi^0\gamma^*\gamma^*}(q_1^2,q_2^2)$ in lattice QCD with two flavors of quarks. Our main motivation is to provide the input to calculate the $\pi^0$-pole…
