Book Description
The authors study on the rare decay K{sub L} 2![pi]°[gamma][gamma], measure a{sub V}, and branching ratio by analyzing 96, 97 and 99 data. The measurements were taken by KTeV at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. After all cuts, they have 1982 K{sub L} 2![pi]°[gamma][gamma] candidate. The background level is estimated as 30%. K{sub L} 2![pi]°[gamma][gamma] branching ratio is measured as (1.29 ± 0.03(stat) ± 0.04(sys)) x 10−6. By using D'Ambrosio's theory to fit a{sub V}, a{sub V} = -( -0.31 ± 0.05(stat) ± 0.07(sys)).

Book Description
The KTeV E799 experiment has conducted a search for the rare decay K{sub L} 2![pi]°°[gamma] via the topology K{sub L} 2![pi]°[pi]°{sub D}[gamma] (where [pi]°{sub D} 2![gamma]ee−). Due to Bose statistics of the [pi]° pair and the real nature of the photon, the K{sub L} 2![pi]°[pi]°[gamma] decay is restricted to proceed at lowest order by the CP conserving direct emission (DE) of an E2 electric quadrupole photon. The rate of this decay is interesting theoretically since chiral perturbation theory predicts that this process vanishes at level O(p4). Therefore, this mode probes chiral perturbation theory at O(p6). In this paper we report a determination of an upper limit of 2.43 x 10−7 (90% CL) for K{sub L} 2![pi]°[pi]°[gamma]. This is approximately a factor of 20 lower than previous results.

Book Description
AGS-787, BNL-Princeton-TRIUMF, began taking data in February 1988 on rare K decays into .pi. and non-interacting neutrals. Recent observations of B-/bar B/ mixing have sharpened the branching ratio prediction of the three generation standard model, (SM), to (approximately) 1-5 x 10−1° for .pi.+.nu./bar /nu//. The detector has 2.pi. acceptance for this decay and 4.pi. acceptance for background gammas. A very large window for viewing new physics exists between the SM value and the previous experimental limit of 1.4 x 10−7. Several other predicted rare K+ decays can be detected. The performance of the detector is described. 8 refs., 4 figs.
