Measurement of the e+e- -> pi+pi- cross section with the CMD-2 detector in the 370-520 MeV c.m. energy range


Abstract in English

The cross section of the process e+e- -> pi+pi- has been measured at the CMD-2 detector in the 370-520 MeV center-of-mass (c.m.) energy range. A systematic uncertainty of the measurement is 0.7 %. Using all CMD-2 data on the pion form factor, the pion electromagnetic radius was calculated. The cross section of muon pair production was also determined.
