Data files for the values given in Table 1:

  • [sppg10.dat]. $d\sigma(e^+e^- \to \pi^+\pi^-\gamma)/dM^2_{\pi\pi}$ with $0^o<\theta_{\pi}<180^o$ and at least one photon with $50^o<\theta_{\gamma}<130^o$ and $E_\gamma$ > 20 MeV. [README]
  • [spp10.dat]. Bare cross section $\sigma(e^+e^- \to \pi^+\pi^-)$, which includes FSR and excludes VP. [README]
  • [fpi10.dat]. Pion form factor $|F+\pi|^2$ including VP, but with FSR removed. [README]

  • Statistical errors:

    (Note: While the errors given in the datafiles above have been rounded accordingly, this is not the case for the values in the covariance matrices given below)
