Dispersion relation for hadronic light-by-light scattering: two-pion contributions
arXiv:1702.07347 · doi:10.1007/JHEP04(2017)161
Abstract
In this third paper of a series dedicated to a dispersive treatment of the hadronic light-by-light (HLbL) tensor, we derive a partial-wave formulation for two-pion intermediate states in the HLbL contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon , including a detailed discussion of the unitarity relation for arbitrary partial waves. We show that obtaining a final expression free from unphysical helicity partial waves is a subtle issue, which we thoroughly clarify. As a by-product, we obtain a set of sum rules that could be used to constrain future calculations of . We validate the formalism extensively using the pion-box contribution, defined by two-pion intermediate states with a pion-pole left-hand cut, and demonstrate how the full known result is reproduced when resumming the partial waves. Using dispersive fits to high-statistics data for the pion vector form factor, we provide an evaluation of the full pion box, . As an application of the partial-wave formalism, we present a first calculation of -rescattering effects in HLbL scattering, with helicity partial waves constructed dispersively using phase shifts derived from the inverse-amplitude method. In this way, the isospin- part of our calculation can be interpreted as the contribution of the to HLbL scattering in . We argue that the contribution due to charged-pion rescattering implements corrections related to the corresponding pion polarizability and show that these are moderate. Our final result for the sum of pion-box contribution and its -wave rescattering corrections reads .
