KTeV Results: Re($\epsilon' / \epsilon$) and Rare Decay Results

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2019-08-14 v1

Abstract

The KTeV physics program encompasses many goals including a precision measurement of the direct CP violation parameter Re(ϵ/ϵ\epsilon' / \epsilon) in KππK \to \pi \pi decays, and studies of rare neutral kaon decays. The KTeV detector collected data during the Fermilab fixed-targed runs of 1996-97 and 1999. This article focuses on the precision measurement of the direct CP violation parameter Re(ϵ/ϵ\epsilon' / \epsilon) using the 1996-97 data set. In addition, measurements of the neutral kaon parameters τS\tau_S, Δm\Delta m, ϕ+\phi_{+-}, Δϕ\Delta \phi from that data set and a new measurement of the branching fraction of KLe+eμ+μK_L \to e^+ e^- \mu^+ \mu^- from the 1997 and 1999 data also are presented.
