Abstract
Optimal bounds for the pion electromagnetic form factor F( t) below threshold and on the pion mean-square charge radius 〈 r π 2〉 = 6 F'(0) are derived. Use is made of analyticity arguments and of experimental data on F( t) from e +e − → π + π − as well as e −p → e −n π +. The method accounts in an approximate way for the statistical errors of the experimental information. Numerical results for F( t) are calculated for the CEA as well as the DESY electroproduction data.
