Abstract

We consider the possibility of violations of the selection rule ΔS=ΔQ\Delta S=\Delta Q at an appreciable level in {\it exclusive} semi-leptonic decays of Kaons. At Φ\Phi-Factories, intense Kaon beams will be available and will probe among others, the semi-leptonic decays Kl4K_{l4} and Kl3γK_{l3\gamma} in addition to Kl3K_{l3} and could provide novel testing grounds for the ΔS=ΔQ\Delta S=\Delta Q rule. In particular, the branching ratio of Kl3γK_{l3\gamma} is non-negligible and could be used to probe new phenomena associated with the violation of this selection rule. Furthermore, we modify certain di-lepton event rate ratios and asymmetries and time asymmetries that have been constructed by Dass and Sarma for di-lepton events from Beon decays to test the ΔB=ΔQ\Delta B=\Delta Q at the Υ(4S)\Upsilon (4S), to the Kaon system at the ϕ(1020)\phi(1020). We find that the large width of the KSK_S relative to that of KLK_L plays an important role in enhancing some of the time asymmetries.
