Abstract
The electromagnetic π+−π0 mass difference is calculated with QCD sum rules technique in the chiral limit. The obtained result Δmπ=4.4±1.1 MeV is in reasonable agreement with the experimental value (Δmπ)exp=4.43±0.03 MeV. The developed technique can be also applied to the determination of the electromagnetic mass difference of K mesons.
