18 Jul 2003 | | Journal: | eConf C0304052 (2003) WG608 | | Subject: | hep-ex | | Abstract: | E865 at the Brookhaven National Laboratory AGS collected about 70,000 K+e3 events with the purpose of measuring the K+e3 branching ratio relative to the observed K+ ->pi+pi0, K+ -> pi0 mu+ neutrino, and K+ -> pi+ pi0 pi0 decays. The pi0 in all the decays was detected using the e+e- pair from pi0 -> e+e- gamma decay and no photons were required. Using the Particle Data Group branching ratios for the normalization decays we obtain BR(Ke3gamma) = (5.13 +- 0.02stat +- 0.09sys +- 0.04norm)%, where K+e3gamma includes the effect of virtual and real photons (inclusive measurement). This result is ~ 2.3 sigma higher than the current Particle Data Group value. The implications of this result for the Vus element of the CKM matrix, and the matrix’s unitarity are discussed. | | Source: | arXiv, hep-ex/0307053 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
