The description of the VV'P form factors (V,V' stands for vector particles and P for a pseudoscalar meson) for different particles virtualities remains a challenge for the theory of strong interactions. While their chiral limit is well understood, recent measurements of the gamma^* omega pi^0 and gamma^* gamma pi^0 form factors at high photon virtualities seem to depart from the simplest scaling behavior suggested by QCD. Here we attempt to describe them in their whole measured energy regimes within the Resonance Chiral Theory, a framework which naturally incorporates the chiral limit constraints and extends to higher energies by including the resonances as active fields. Specifically, we obtained an accurate description of the data up to 2 GeV on the former form factor by including three multiplets of vector resonances. Good agreement with measurements of the latter was possible even in the single resonance approximation, although we propose to measure the e^+e^- to mu^+mu^-pi^0 cross-section and di-muon invariant mass distribution to better characterize this form factor. We have then evaluated the pion exchange contribution to the muon g-2 obtaining (6.66\pm0.21)x10^{-10} with an accurate determination of the errors. We have also recalled that approximating the whole pion exchange by the pion pole contribution underestimates the corresponding result for the anomaly (by (15,20)%). Based on these results, we have predicted the eta^(\prime) transition form factors obtaining good agreement with data and obtained their respective contributions to the muon anomaly. In this way, the contribution of the three lightest pseudoscalars to it yields (10.47\pm0.54)x10^{-10}, in agreement with previous evaluations but with smaller error.

  1. Tensor meson transition form factors in holographic QCD and the muon $g-2$

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Holographic QCD predicts a positive tensor-meson contribution of about +11e-11 to the muon g-2, driven by a previously omitted doubly-virtual form factor.

  2. Dispersion relation for hadronic light-by-light scattering: $\eta$ and $\eta'$ poles

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A dispersive analysis of the eta and eta' transition form factors yields data-driven pole contributions to the muon g-2 of 14.7(9) x 10^-11 and 13.5(7) x 10^-11.

  3. Compatibility between $e^+e^-$ and $\tau$ decay data in the di-pion channel and implications for $a_\mu^\mathrm{SM}$ and CVC tests

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Updated isospin-breaking corrections bring tau decay data into agreement with the new CMD-3 e+e- result, supporting a tau-based hadronic vacuum polarization estimate that reduces the muon g-2 tension to 2.7 sigma.

  4. Hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon g-2 on Euclidean windows from tau data

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 3.0 of 10

    Tau data give an independent, lattice-compatible value for the intermediate-window hadronic vacuum polarization, disagreeing with the e+e- data-driven value that drives the muon g-2 tension.
