We report on a measurement of hard exclusive $pi^0$ muoproduction on the proton by COMPASS using 160 GeV/$c$ polarised $mu^+$ and $mu^-$ beams of the CERN SPS impinging on a liquid hydrogen target. From the average of the measured $mu^+$ and $mu^-$ cross sections, the virtual-photon proton cross section is determined as a function of the squared four-momentum transfer between initial and final proton in the range $0.08,(text{GeV/}c)^2 < |t| < 0.64,(text{GeV/}c)^2$. The average kinematics of the measurement are $langle Q^2 rangle =2.0; {(text{GeV}/c)^2}$, $langle u rangle = 12.8; {text{GeV}}$, $langle x_{Bj} rangle = 0.093 $ and $langle -t rangle = 0.256; {(text{GeV}/c)^2} $. Fitting the azimuthal dependence reveals a combined contribution by transversely and longitudinally polarised photons of $(8.1 pm 0.9_{text{stat}}{}_{- 1.0}^{+ 1.1}bigrvert_{text{sys}}),{text{nb}}/{(text{GeV}/c)^{2}}$, as well as transverse-transverse and longitudinal-transverse interference contributions of $(-6.0 pm 1.3_{text{stat}}{}_{- 0.7}^{+ 0.7}bigrvert_{text{sys}}),{text{nb}}/{(text{GeV}/c)^{2}}$ and $(1.4 pm 0.5_{text{stat}}{}_{- 0.2}^{+ 0.3}bigrvert_{text{sys}}),{text{nb}}/{(text{GeV}/c)^{2}}$, respectively. Our results provide important input for modelling Generalised Parton Distributions. In the context of the phenomenological Goloskokov-Kroll model, the statistically significant transverse-transverse interference contribution constitutes clear experimental evidence for the chiral-odd GPD $overline{E}_T$.

We present deeply virtual $pi^0$ electroproduction cross-section measurements at $x_B$=0.36 and three different $Q^2$--values ranging from 1.5 to 2 GeV$^2$, obtained from experiment E07-007 that ran in the Hall A at Jefferson Lab. The Rosenbluth tech nique was used to separate the longitudinal and transverse responses. Results demonstrate that the cross section is dominated by its transverse component, and thus is far from the asymptotic limit predicted by perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics. An indication of a non-zero longitudinal contribution is provided by the interference term $sigma_{LT}$ also measured. Results are compared with several models based on the leading twist approach of Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs). In particular, a fair agreement is obtained with models where the scattering amplitude is described by a convolution of chiral-odd (transversity) GPDs of the nucleon with the twist-3 pion distribution amplitude. Therefore, neutral pion electroproduction may offer the exciting possibility of accessing transversity GPDs through experiment.
We study the process e+e- -> pi+pi-pi+pi-gamma, with a photon emitted from the initial-state electron or positron, using 454.3 fb^-1 of data collected with the BABAR detector at SLAC, corresponding to approximately 260,000 signal events. We use these data to extract the non-radiative sigma(e+e- ->pi+pi-pi+pi-) cross section in the energy range from 0.6 to 4.5 Gev. The total uncertainty of the cross section measurement in the peak region is less than 3%, higher in precision than the corresponding results obtained from energy scan data.

Exclusive photoproduction of $rho^0(770)$ mesons is studied using the H1 detector at the $ep$ collider HERA. A sample of about 900000 events is used to measure single- and double-differential cross sections for the reaction $gamma p to pi^{+}pi^{-}Y$ . Reactions where the proton stays intact (${m_Y{=}m_p}$) are statistically separated from those where the proton dissociates to a low-mass hadronic system ($m_p{<}m_Y{<}10$ GeV). The double-differential cross sections are measured as a function of the invariant mass $m_{pipi}$ of the decay pions and the squared $4$-momentum transfer $t$ at the proton vertex. The measurements are presented in various bins of the photon-proton collision energy $W_{gamma p}$. The phase space restrictions are $0.5 < m_{pipi} < 2.2$ GeV, ${vert tvert < 1.5}$ GeV${}^2$, and ${20 < W_{gamma p} < 80}$ GeV. Cross section measurements are presented for both elastic and proton-dissociative scattering. The observed cross section dependencies are described by analytic functions. Parametrising the $m_{pipi}$ dependence with resonant and non-resonant contributions added at the amplitude level leads to a measurement of the $rho^{0}(770)$ meson mass and width at $m_rho = 770.8 {}^{+2.6}_{-2.7}$ (tot) MeV and $Gamma_rho = 151.3 {}^{+2.7}_{-3.6}$ (tot) MeV, respectively. The model is used to extract the $rho^0(770)$ contribution to the $pi^{+}pi^{-}$ cross sections and measure it as a function of $t$ and $W_{gamma p}$. In a Regge asymptotic limit in which one Regge trajectory $alpha(t)$ dominates, the intercept $alpha(t{=}0) = 1.0654 {}^{+0.0098}_{-0.0067}$ (tot) and the slope $alpha^prime(t{=}0) = 0.233 {}^{+0.067 }_{-0.074 }$ (tot) GeV${}^{-2}$ of the $t$ dependence are extracted for the case $m_Y{=}m_p$.
The process $e^+e^-to K^+K^-pi^0$ is studied with the SND detector at the VEPP-2000 $e^+e^-$ collider. Basing on data with an integrated luminosity of 26.4~pb$^{-1}$ we measure the $e^+e^-to K^+K^-pi^0$ cross section in the center-of-mass energy rang e from 1.28 up to 2 GeV. The measured mass spectrum of the $Kpi$ system indicates that the dominant mechanism of this reaction is the transition through the $K^{ast}(892)K$ intermediate state. The cross section for the $phipi^0$ intermediate state is measured separately. The SND results are consistent with previous measurements in the BABAR experiment and have comparable accuracy. We study the effect of the interference between the $phipi^0$ and $K^ast K$ amplitudes. It is found that the interference gives sizable contribution to the measured $e^+e^- to phi pi^0to K^+K^-pi^0$ cross section below 1.7 GeV.
We analyze a 37 pb$^{-1}$ data sample collected with the SND detector at the VEPP-2000 $e^+e^-$ collider in the center-of-mass energy range 1.05--2.00 GeV and present an updated measurement of the $e^+e^- to omega pi^0 to pi^0pi^0gamma$ cross section . In particular, we correct the mistake in radiative correction calculation made in our previous measurement based on a part of the data. The measured cross section is fitted with the vector meson dominance model with three $rho$-like states and used to test the conserved vector current hypothesis in the $tau^-toomegapi^- u_{tau}$ decay.
