S-matrix approach to two-pion production in e^+e^- annihilation and tau decay
Based on the S-matrix approach, we introduce a modified formula for the $π^{\pm}$ electromagnetic form factor which describes very well the experimental data in the energy region $2m_π \leq \sqrt{s} \leq 1.1$ GeV. Using the CVC hypothesis we predict $B(\tpp) = (24.75 \pm 0.38)\% $, in excellent agreement with recent experiments.
