Precision Standard Model Tests with Kaons
نویسنده
چکیده
In kaon physics, several new precision measurements on flavour variables and CP violation have performed in the recent years. Presented are a new precise determination of the CKM parameter |Vus|, which combines the results of all experiments together with recent theoretical progress, and new measurements of the ratio RK = Γ(K + → eν)/Γ(K → μν), which is sensitive to contributions of a possible charged Higgs in the SUSY framework. Also, final results of a precision search for direct CP violation in charged kaon decays are presented.

Lepton Universality Tests with Kaons
Precision data on K l3 and K l2 decay rates and form factors allow us to perform significant tests of lepton universality and to constrain the strength of non-standard interactions. The present status of these tests and new physics searches are discussed, as obtained by combining all the available results of the various kaon physics experiments. c Copyright owned by the author(s) under the term...
متن کاملCPT and Quantum Mechanics Tests with Kaons
In this review we first discuss the theoretical motivations for possible CPT violation and deviations from ordinary quantum-mechanical behavior of field-theoretic systems in the context of an extended class of quantumgravity models. Then we proceed to a description of precision tests of CPT symmetry using mainly neutral kaons. We emphasize the possibly unique rôle of neutral meson factories in ...
متن کاملCPT and Quantum Mechanics Tests with Kaons: Theory
In this talk I review theoretical motivations for possible CPT Violation and deviations from ordinary quantum mechanical behavior of field theoretic systems in some quantum gravity models, and I describe the relevant precision tests using neutral and charged Kaons. I emphasize the possibly unique rôle of neutral-meson factories in providing specific tests of models in which the CPT operator is ...
متن کاملBounds on CPT and Lorentz Violation from Experiments with Kaons
Possible signals for indirect CPT violation arising in experiments with neutral kaons are considered in the context of a general CPTand Lorentz-violating standard-model extension. Certain CPT observables can depend on the meson momentum and exhibit sidereal variations in time. Any leading-order CPT violation would be controlled by four parameters that can be separately constrained in appropriat...
متن کاملBasic Parameters and Some Precision Tests of the Standard Model(*)
We present a review of the masses (except for neutrino masses) and interaction strengths in the standard model. Special emphasis is put on quantities that have been determined with significantly improved precision in the last few years. In particular, a number of determinations of αs and the electromagnetic coupling on the Z, αQED(M 2 Z) are presented and their implications for the Higgs mass d...
