The solid line is the full two-loop result, the dashed line corresponds to the one-loop approximation [ 18] and the dotted line is the Born contribution. The dashed-double dotted line is the result of a dispersive calculation performed by Donoghue and Holstein (Fig. 7 in Ref.

The value for the charged pion is in excellent agreement with ChPT, whereas we fail to get close to the ChPT prediction for the neutral pion.

ChPT assessment for π ± polarizabilities Rather constrained predictions based on natural size estimate of NLO LECs Significant deviations would be very surprising, but tested must be Given the spread in experimental determinations, including very large deviations from the ChPT predictions, the JLab experiment is of extreme importance
Summary Pion polarizabilities are rigorous ChPT predictions in chiral limit Significant corrections at NLO in ChPT for the neutral pion NLO corrections for charged pion are of natural size (modulo assumptions on NLO LECs) Experimental extractions of polarizabilities still open problem, in particular for charged pion due to conflicting results Hall D @ JLab 12: unique opportunity to measure for to extract with unprecedented accuracy s<500 MeV ᾱ π ± β π ± Similar experiment for neutral pion seems to be necessary and a natural future step with Primakoff production Impact in particle physics: Michael Ramsey-Musolf s talk γγ π + π
