 +   <hidden TTP02-43  The radiative return at phi- and B-factories: small-angle photon emission at next to leading order >   The radiative return offers the unique possibility for a measurement of the 
 + cross section of electron--positron annihilation into hadrons over a wide range 
 + of energies. The large luminosity of present phi- and B-factories easily 
 + compensates for the additional factor of alpha due to the emission of a hard 
 + photon. Final states with photons at large angles can be easily identified. The 
 + rate for events with collinear photons, however, is enhanced by a large 
 + logarithm and allows, in particular at lower energies, for a complementary 
 + measurement. 
 +  The Monte Carlo generator PHOKHARA, which includes next to leading order 
 + corrections from virtual and real photon emission, has been extended from large 
 + photon angles into the collinear region, using recent results for the virtual 
 + corrections. In addition, the present version includes final state radiation 
 + for muon and pion pair production and final states with four pions. 
 + Implications for the experimental analysis at three typical energies, 1.02, 4 
 + and 10.6 GeV, are presented: the magnitude of these new corrections is studied, 
 + possibilities for the separation of initial and final state radiation are 
 + proposed, and the differences with respect to the previous treatment based on 
 + structure functions are investigated.
