It is obtained using the complete set of the next-to-leading-order radiative corrections in the QED sector, and incorporates up-to-date values of the pi(0)-transition-form-factor slope. The ratio R translates into the branching ratios of the two main pi(0) decay modes: B(pi(0) -> gamma gamma) = 98.8131(6){\%} and B(pi(0) -> e(+)e(-)gamma(gamma)) = 1.1836(6){\%}.", optnote="WOS:000456041800006", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=3886), last updated on Sat, 02 Feb 2019 11:46:46 +0000", issn="0031-9007", doi="10.1103/PhysRevLett.122.022003", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1809.01153", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.122.022003", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1809.01153", language="English" }
