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…
We discuss the virtual Compton scattering amplitude $\gamma^\ast+\pi\to \gamma+\pi$ which enters the reaction $\pi^-+e^-\to\pi^-+e^-+\gamma$. The low-energy scattering amplitude is divided into a model-independent part, involving only the…
A dispersive representation based on unitarity and analyticity is used to study the low energy $\gamma N \to \pi N\ \text{and}\ \gamma^* N \to \pi N$ partial wave amplitudes. Final state interactions of the $\pi N$ system are critical to…
In the scaling regime, amplitudes for backward virtual Compton scattering and hadron annihilation into two photons depend on structure functions that describe the hadron-photon transition at the partonic level. We construct simple…
The hadronic light-by-light contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon was recently analyzed in the framework of dispersion theory, providing a systematic formalism where all input quantities are expressed in terms of…
The pion-pole contribution to hadronic light-by-light scattering in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $(g-2)_\mu$ is fully determined by the doubly-virtual pion transition form factor. Although this crucial input quantity is, in…
Based on analyticity, unitarity, and Lorentz invariance the contribution from hadronic vacuum polarization to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon is directly related to the cross section of e^+e^- --> hadrons. We review the main…
We analyze the pion transition form factor using dispersion theory. We calculate the singly-virtual form factor in the time-like region based on data for the $e^+e^-\to 3\pi$ cross section, generalizing previous studies on…
The low energy scattering of pions is investigated in the presence of electromagnetic interactions at leading order and at next-to-leading order for the amplitudes involving at most one pair of charged pions. The size of the electromagnetic…
We present results for the charged and neutral pion polarizabilities, obtained through a dispersive analysis of photon-fusion reactions with two pions in the final state. This analysis is motivated by current and future measurements at…
The relativistic amplitudes of pion photo- and electroproduction are calculated by dispersion relations at constant t. Several sum rules and low-energy theorems for the threshold amplitudes are investigated within this technique. The…
We present a detailed analysis of $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-$ data up to $\sqrt{s}=1\,\text{GeV}$ in the framework of dispersion relations. Starting from a family of $\pi\pi$ $P$-wave phase shifts, as derived from a previous Roy-equation analysis…
We investigate pion photoproduction off the proton in a manifestly gauge-invariant chiral unitary extension of chiral perturbation theory. In a first step, we consider meson-baryon scattering taking into account all next-to-leading order…
The exclusive production of \pi\pi and \pi\rho in hard \gamma^{\star}\gamma scattering in the forward kinematical region where the virtual photon is highly off-shell are studied through the \gamma\to\pi^- Transition Distribution Amplitudes.…
Recent attempts to detect the pion polarizability via analysis of $\gamma\gamma\rightarrow\pi\pi$ measurements are examined. The connection between calculations based on dispersion relations and on chiral perturbation theory is established…
The relativistic amplitudes of pion photoproduction are evaluated by dispersion relations at t=const. The imaginary parts of the amplitudes are taken from the MAID model covering the absorption spectrum up to center-of-mass energies W = 2.2…
Virtual Compton scattering off nucleons and pions at low energies is discussed. Predictions for the generalized polarizabilities of the nucleon are presented within the framework of heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory and the linear…
We study the hard exclusive production of two pions in the virtual photon fragmentation region with various invariant masses including the resonance region. The amplitude is expressed in terms of two-pion light cone distribution amplitudes…
We investigate the possibility to constrain the pion distribution amplitude from the gamma* gamma* -> pi transition. For a surprisingly large range in the two photon virtualities we find that the transition form factor is essentially…
We perform an expansion of the virtual Compton scattering amplitude for low energies and low momenta and show that this expansion covers the transition from the regime to be investigated in the scheduled photon electroproduction experiments…
