We present a new measurement of the branching ratio R of the decay KL→πeν, denoted as Ke3, relative to all charged KL decays with two tracks, based on data taken with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. We measure R = 0.4978 ±0.0035. From this we derive the Ke3 branching fraction and the weak coupling parameter |Vus | in the CKM matrix. We obtain |Vus | f+(0) = 0.2146 ±0.0016, where f+(0) is the vector form factor in the Ke3 decay.

Abstract

We present a new measurement of the branching ratio R of the decay KL→πeν, denoted as Ke3, relative to all charged KL decays with two tracks, based on data taken with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. We measure R = 0.4978 ±0.0035. From this we derive the Ke3 branching fraction and the weak coupling parameter |Vus | in the CKM matrix. We obtain |Vus | f+(0) = 0.2146 ±0.0016, where f+(0) is the vector form factor in the Ke3 decay.
