Abstract

Results of a study of the K+π0e+νγK^+ \rightarrow \pi^{0} e^{+} \nu \gamma decay at OKA setup are presented. More than 32000 events of this decay are observed. The differential spectra over the photon energy and the photon-electron opening angle in kaon rest frame are presented. The branching ratios, normalized to that of Ke3K_{e3} decay are calculated for different cuts in EγE^*_\gamma and cosΘeγcos\Theta^{*}_{e\gamma}. In particular, the branching ratio for Eγ>30E^{*}_{\gamma}>30 MeV and Θeγ>20\Theta^{*}_{e \gamma}>20^{\circ} is measured R = Br(K+π0e+νeγ)Br(K+π0e+νe)\frac{Br(K^+ \rightarrow \pi^{0} e^{+} \nu_{e} \gamma) } {Br(K^+ \rightarrow \pi^{0} e^{+} \nu_{e})} = =(0.587±\pm0.010(stat.stat.)±\pm0.015(syst.syst.))×102\times10^{-2}, which is in a good agreement with ChPT O(p4)O(p^{4}) calculations.
