High statistics measurement of the K+->pi(0)e(+)nu (Ke3(+)) branching ratio.
Original language description
E865 at the Brookhaven National Laboratory AGS collected about 70 000 K-e3(+) events to measure the K-e3(+) branching ratio relative to the observed K+-->pi(+)pi(0), K+-->pi(0)mu(+)nu, and K+-->pi(+)pi(0)pi(0) decays. The pi(0) in all the decays was detected using the e(+)e(-) pair from pi(0)-->e(+)e(-)gamma decay and no photons were required. Using the 2002 Particle Data Group branching ratios for the normalization decays, we obtain BR(K-e3(gamma)(+))=(5.13+/-0.02(stat)+/-0.09(syst)+/-0.04(norm))%, where K-e3(gamma)(+) includes the effect of virtual and real photons. This result is approximate to2.3sigma higher than the current Particle Data Group value. Implications for the V-us element of the CKM matrix, and the matrix's unitarity are discussed.
