Abstract

We study the pion-mass dependence of the two-pion channel in the hadronic-vacuum-polarization (HVP) contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon aμHVP, by using an Omnès representation for the pion vector form factor with the phase shift derived from the inverse-amplitude method (IAM). Our results constrain the dominant isospin-1 part of the isospin-symmetric light-quark contribution, and should thus allow one to better control the chiral extrapolation of aμHVP, required for lattice-QCD calculations performed at larger-than-physical pion masses. In particular, the comparison of the one- and two-loop IAM allows us to estimate the associated systematic uncertainties and show that these are under good control.
