An important uncertainty on the hadronic corrections to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon comes from the so-called “light-by-light scattering” contributions. To estimate such contributions, data on the π⁰ transition form factor, parametrising the effective coupling of the neutral pion with the electromagnetic field, are useful. One way to access this form factor is measuring the π⁰ electroproduction cross section in the Primakoff kinematical regime. Feasibility studies for this measurement by upgrading the A1 facility at MAMI with the PANDA backward calorimeter within the framework of the phase 0 of the FAIR project will be reported.
