We present the results of Phase I of an ongoing review of Monte Carlo tools relevant for low-energy hadronic cross sections. This includes a detailed comparison of Monte Carlo codes for electron-positron scattering into a muon pair, pion pair, and electron pair, for scan and radiative-return experiments. After discussing the various approaches that are used and effects that are included, we show differential cross sections obtained with AfkQed, BabaYaga@NLO, KKMC, MCGPJ, McMule, Phokhara, and Sherpa, for scenarios that are inspired by experiments providing input for the dispersive evaluation of the hadronic vacuum polarisation.

    hep-lat 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Feasibility study of combined LQCD and experimental data on pion TFF via modified z-expansion fit reports up to 3x uncertainty reduction in singly-virtual limit but only 1.5x improvement for the pion-pole g-2 contribution.
