Studies of the reaction $\gamma\pi\to\pi\pi$, in the context of the ongoing Primakoff program of the COMPASS experiment at CERN, give access to the radiative couplings of the $\rho(770)$ and $\rho_3(1690)$ resonances. We provide a…

We study the e^{+}e^{-} to phi pi pi reaction for pions in an isoscalar s-wave which is dominated by loop mechanisms. For kaon loops we start from the conventional RCHPT, but use the unitarized amplitude for KbarK-pipi scattering and the…

We have revisited the isospin-breaking corrections relating $\sigma(e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-)$ and $\Gamma(\tau^-\to\pi^-\pi^0\nu_\tau)$. We confirm that the associated uncertainty is under control, so that tau data can also be used to predict…
Dalitz decays of $\omega$ and $\rho$ mesons, $\omega\to \pi^0\gamma^*\to\pi^0 e^+e^-$ and $\rho^0\to \pi^0\gamma^*\to\pi^0 e^+e^-$, produced in $pp$ collisions are calculated within a covariant effective meson-nucleon theory. We argue that…
Using data samples collected at center-of-mass energies between 2.000 and 3.080 GeV with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, a partial-wave analysis is performed on the process $e^+e^-\to\eta\pi^+\pi^-$. In addition to the…
We extend recently developed methods used for determining the electromagnetic charge radius and $a_\mu^{\pi\pi}$ to obtain a determination of the electromagnetic form factor of the pion, $F_\pi^V(t)$, in several significant kinematical…
We employ a dispersion relation that allows to recover the phase of the electromagnetic form factor of the pion from its absolute value above threshold. Compared to alternative approaches building on the phase, this approach builds on…

At low energies hadronic vacuum polarization (HVP) is strongly dominated by two-pion intermediate states, which are responsible for about $70\%$ of the HVP contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, $a_\mu^\text{HVP}$.…
