Abstract

At present, the main topics addressed by kaon physics are the unitarity test of CKM matrix via precision measurements of the Cabibbo angle as well as precision tests of discrete symmetries: in particular, study of possible CPT violations in a model-independent way through the Bell-Steinberger relation, or through the measurement of charge asymmetries. Other interesting topics are related to the test of predictions from chiral perturbation theory. Also status and prospects of the K±π±ν(ˉnu)K^\pm \to \pi^\pm\nu\bar(nu) and $K^0\to\pi^0\nu\bar(nu) decays are discussed.
