QED radiative corrections to the decay π0→e+e-

We reconsider QED radiative corrections (RC) to the π⁰→e⁺e^- decay width. One kind of RC investigated earlier has a renormalization group origin and can be associated with the final state interaction of electron and positron. It determines the distribution of lepton pair invariant masses in the whole kinematic region. The other type of RC has a double-logarithmic character and is related to almost on-mass-shell behavior of the lepton form factors. The total effect of RC for π⁰→e⁺e^- decay is estimated to be 3.2%, and for η→e⁺e^- decay it is 4.3%. PACS  13.25.Cq; 12.38.Lg; 12.38.-t
