Abstract

Existing Monte-Carlo generators with radiative corrections to the e⁺e^-→π⁺π^- process are usually developed under the assumption that pions can be treated as pointlike particles. We study the e⁺e^-→π⁺π^-γ process with final-state radiation and test this assumption using simulated events from the MCGPJ generator based on the scalar QED hypothesis. In order to increase a fraction of events with FSR, the analysis was performed in the energy region to the left from the ρ-meson peak (660÷785 MeV) that is based on the integrated luminosity of about 8.4 pb^-1. The experimental data for the photon energy spectrum agree with the simulation results at 1% level.
