The H(e,e'pi+)n cross section was measured at four-momentum transfers of Q2=1.60 and 2.45 GeV2 at an invariant mass of the photon nucleon system of W=2.22 GeV. The charged pion form factor (F_pi) was extracted from the data by comparing the separated longitudinal pion electroproduction cross section to a Regge model prediction in which F_pi is a free parameter. The results indicate that the pion form factor deviates from the charge-radius constrained monopole form at these values of Q2 by one sigma, but is still far from its perturbative Quantum Chromo-Dynamics prediction.

The cross section of the reaction e + e − → π + π − has been measured in the energy range 2 E from 0.78 up to 1.34 GeV. The obtained experimental values of the pion form factor exceed notably the ρ -meson tail.

Using the colliding beam machine, VEPP-2, the excitation curve of the ø-meson resonance was investigated in the three main decay modes. The resonance parameters obtained are the width, the total cross-section and the branching ratios. Namely: Γ = (4.67 ± 0.42) Mev B ( K + K − ) = (54.0 ± 3,4) % σ o = (3.96 ± 0.35) μB B ( K o s K O L ) = (25.7 ±3,0) % B ( e + e − = (2,81 ± 0.25) × 10 −4 B ( π + π − π o ) = (20.3 ± 4,2) %
