The problem diagnostics:

Calculate

Integrate[ Sin[x/2]^2 / x^2 / (x^2-4*Pi^2 )^2 / (x^2 + a^2)^2 ,
{x,-oo,oo}, Assumptions-> a>0]

The integrand is nonnegative, has no poles on the real line and decays
rapidly  ~ x^-10 as x->+-oo

Hi, Roland,

I checked your expression, it has a pole on the x axis. Check this

Sin[x/2]^2 / x^2 / (x^2-4*Pi^2 )^2 / (x^2 + a^2)^2//StandardForm

Could it be the case, that you have just written it down in a wrong way?
