Electromagnetic pion form factor in the timelike region

Description

The pion electromagnetic form factor has been measured at the VEPP-2M collider in the c.m. energy range 360 MeV/1400 MeV with the detectors OLYA and CMD. On the basis of all available data for the pion form factor collected in the timelike region, the following values for rho-meson parameters were obtained: msub(rho)=775.9+-1.1 MeV, GAMMAsub(rho)=150.5+-3.0 MeV. The ω-meson branching ratio into π+π- pair, electromagnetic radius of the pion, ππ scattering length in the P-wave and the strong interaction contribution to the muon (g-2) value were found to be Bsub(ω)sub(ππ)=(2.3+-0.4)%, =0.422+-0.013 fm2, α11=0.033+-0.003 msub(π)-3, αsub(H)=(68.4+-1.1) x 10-9.
