Abstract
We present a measurement of the ratio of the decay rates Γ (KL → π+ π− )/Γ (KL → π± e∓ ν), denoted as Γ(K2π)/Γ(Ke3). The analysis is based on data taken during a dedicated run in 1999 by the NA48 experiment at the CERN SPS. Using a sample of 47 000 K2π and five million Ke3 decays, we find Γ(K2π)/Γ(Ke3) = (4.835 ± 0.022stat. ± 0.016syst. ) × 10^−3 . From this we derive the branching ratio of the CP violating decay KL → π+ π− and the CP violation parameter |η+− |. Excluding the CP conserving direct photon emission component KL → π+ π− γ , we obtain the results BR(KL → π+ π− ) = (1.941 ± 0.019) × 10^−3 and |η+− | = (2.223 ± 0.012) × 10^−3 .| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
