Measurement of the K_L \to πμνform factor parameters with the KLOE detector

preprint2007arXivOpen access

Abstract

Using 328 pb^{-1}of data collected at DAFNE corresponding to ∼\sim 1.8 million KL→πμνK_L\to πμν decays, we have measured the Kμ3K_{μ3} form factor parameters. The structure of the K−πK-π vector-current provides information about the dynamics of the strong interaction; its knowledge is necessary for evaluation of the phase-space integral required for measuring the CKM matrix element VusV_{us} and for testing lepton universality in kaon decays. Using a new parametrization for the vector and scalar form factors, we find λ+λ_+=\pt(25.7\pm 0.6),-3, and λ0λ_0=\pt(14.0\pm 2.1),-3,. Our result for λ0λ_0, together with recent lattice calculations of fπf_π, fKf_K and f(0)f(0), satisfies the Callan-Trieman relation
