Radiative Return via Electron Pair Production: Monte Carlo Simulation of the Process e+e- \to \pi +\pi - e+e-

H. Czyz, E. Nowak-Kubat

Contributions from the reaction e+e- \to \pi +\pi - e+e- to the pion form factor measurement via radiative return method are discussed basing on the results of a Monte Carlo generator (EKHARA). The generator contains contributions from the initial and final state emission of a e+e- pair from e+e-\to \pi +\pi - production diagrams and the \pi +\pi - pair production from space-like and time-like Bhabha diagrams. A detailed study is performed for the {\Phi }-factory energy. Tests of the generation procedure are also presented.
