  1. Recent Results from KTeV Leo Bellantoni (FNAL) for the KTeV Collaboration KLp0m+m- X0S+m-n |Vus| and related measurementsPhys Rev Lett 93, 181802 (2004) Phys Rev D70, 092005 (2004) Phys Rev D80, 092007 (2004) Phys Rev D71, 012001 (2005) Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  3. Theoretical: • Isidori, Smith & Unterdorfer, • Eur.Phys.J.C36:57-66(2004) • Combo of p0m+m- & p0e+e- • valuable in elucidating new physics • Experimental: • Park, et.al. (HyperCP), Phys.Rev.Lett. 94,021801 (2005) • Br(S+pm+m-) = (8.6 STAT 5.5SYST) x10-8 (3 events) • Expectation is ~ 0.1 x10-8 • All 3 events at the same mass: 214.3 0.5 MeV; C.L. for this in S.M. is 0.8% +6.6 -5.4 May indicate a new neutral intermediate state, P0 Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  4. KTeV’s existing limit on p0m+m- helps constrain P0 Br(S+pm+m-) is too small for P0 to likely be a hadron - it is closer to the sort of rate typical of EM interactions (J)P conservation limits a pointlike P0 to (J)P = 0- or 1- ; but if P0 is 1- it will contribute to KLp0m+m- From HyperCP’s Br(S+pP0), PDG lifetimes for S+, KL and our limit Br(KLp0m+m-) < 3.8 x10-10Phys.Rev.Lett. 84,5279(2000) G(S+pP0) ~ 2.5 x10-19MeV G(KLp0m+m-) < 4.8 x10-24MeV Rules out P0 is J = 1- hypothesis New limit onBr(KLp0m+m-) from full KTeV dataset in progress Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  5. Observation of X0S+m-n With 9 events from ‘99 dataset, no background events seen in wrong sign, or in 10x MC sample - Normalized to X0Lp0, Lpp- Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  6. Long standing issue: 1st row unitarity SEWShort range EW & QCD corrections - same for e,m f+(0) Form factor at t = (Pl + Pn)2 = 0; we use 0.961 0.008 [Leutwyler & Roos, 1984] dl Long range (mode-dependent) radiative corrections Integral over phase space of form factor squared |Vus| etc. BNL E865 (May 2003) found a higher value for Br(K+p0e+n) consistent with unitarity but giving |Vus| ~2.7s above existing Br(KLpen) value. @ ~2.2 s level Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  7. Step 1: Radiative corrections T.Andre, hep-ph/0406006 Take Evaluate with linear, quadratic and pole model form factors f Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  8. Step 2: Form factors We parameterize with f+(t) and fi expanded in powers of t / mp2; coefficients are li • Since pK is not known, there is a two-fold reconstruction ambiguity due to unseen n • We use tl = (P’l + P’n)2 or tp = (P’K - P’p)2 -Basically, t evaluated without longitudinal coordinates to momenta. Costs ~15% of statistical power • Some fits also use mlp Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  9. Pole model fits also reported… Linear model l+ values consistent with PDG values. Quadratic term significant at 4s level Lowers phase space integral by ~1%. Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  10. Andre’s prediction KTeV’s measurement Step 3: Check steps 1&2 with KLplng Acceptance corrections for 2ndg via PHOTOS ~1.8% for Ke3 Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  11. Step 4: Get the branching ratio Ordinarily, would measure something like where the “nice” mode has high statistics, a well-known rate, and is similar to Kl3 in the detector. Sadly, there is no “nice” mode. Measure these 5 ratios, use S = 1 constraint to get Br Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  12. Except for G000/GKe3, all ratios have final similar states • Except for G00/G000, all ratios in same trigger; this analysis similarto the e’/e neutral mode analysis • K ratios without/with m ID agree to (0.08 0.02stat)% • K+ ratios without/with 0 reconstruction in CsI-factor ~4 change in acceptance- agree to (0.03  0.28stat)% Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  13. Using lepton universality, More Cross-checks Taking dl from our radiative correction algorithm, phase-space integrals from our form factor measurements GKm3 / GKe3 = 0.6660 0.0019 And from the direct measurement,GKm3 / GKe3 = 0.6640 0.00140.0022 Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  14. From measured ratios to |Vus| Br(Ke3) = 0.4067 0.0011 Br(Km3) = 0.2701 0.0009 Using tK = 51.5 0.4 ns G(Ke3) = (7.897 0.065) x106s-1 G(Km3) = (5.244 0.044) x106s-1 Ke3: |Vus| = 0.2253  0.0023 K3: |Vus| = 0.2250  0.0023 Average: |Vus| =0.2252  0.0008KTeV  0.0021ext f+(0), tK, rad corrs G ratios, form factors Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  15. s(Vud,Vub) s(f+(0)) Compared to PDG-02, Br(Ke3) is ~5% (6s!) higher; Br(Km3) not much changed. Phase space integrals are lower by 1.7% and 4.2% in e and m modes, including the ~1% shift from quadratic term Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration

  16. Conclusions • HyperCP’s anolomy inS+pm+m- is not due to a (J)P • conserving vector boson • Final KTeV result on Br(KLp0m+m-) on its way -also, watch for KLe+e-g, KLp+p-e+e- form factors and branching ratio • Preliminary results onX0S+m-n shown • We have new and very precise results on major branching ratios, partial widths, |h+-|, form factors, radiative semileptonic decays, and |Vus| in the KL system. They show a great deal of internal consistency and solve the CKM 1st-row unitarity problem. Leo Bellantoni for the KTeV collaboration
