Test of ChPT with $K_{e4}^{\pm}$ and $K_{e4}^{00}$ decays at the NA48/2 experiment at CERN

The NA48/2 experiment has collected the largest samples to date of semi-leptonic charged kaon decays in the (K± → π+π-e±ν) and (K± → π0π0e±ν) modes. From 1.1 million decays, form factors in the S- and P-wave have been extensively studied. Branching ratio and form factors have been measured at unprec...

Sumario:The NA48/2 experiment has collected the largest samples to date of semi-leptonic charged kaon decays in the (K± → π+π-e±ν) and (K± → π0π0e±ν) modes. From 1.1 million decays, form factors in the S- and P-wave have been extensively studied. Branching ratio and form factors have been measured at unprecedented precision. From ~ 66000 decays, preliminary values of the Branching ratio and form factor have been obtained at a percent level precision. The comparison of Branching ratio and form factor values in both Ke4 modes sheds new light on isospin symmetry breaking effects. Form factor measurements are major inputs to the study of low energy QCD and are powerful tests of Chiral Perturbation Theory predictions.
