The ISR luminosity is determined from a study of the leptonic process e +e − → µ +µ −(γ)γISR, which is found to agree with the next-to-leading-order QED prediction to within 1.1%. The cross section for the process e +e − → π +π −(γ) is obtained with a systematic uncertainty of 0.5% in the dominant ρ resonance region. The leading-order hadronic contribution to the muon magnetic anomaly calculated using the measured ππ cross section from threshold to 1.8 GeV is (514.1±2.2(stat)±3.1(syst))×10−10 . |
