We report on results of a search for the decay mode K_L -> pi^0 gamma e^+ e^- conducted by the E162 experiment at KEK. We observed no events and set a 90% confidence level upper limit of Br(K_L -> pi^0 gamma e^+ e^-)< 7.1x10^{-7} for its…
Recent measurements by the NA48 at CERN of selected $K_L$ decays are presented. These are the branching ratios and form factors for channels $K_L\to \pi^{\pm}\pi^0\e^{\mp}\nu_e$ (final result), $K_L\to\pi^{\pm}e^{\mp}\nu_e$ and $K_L\to…

It has been known for many years that there is a CP-conserving component for the decay mode K_L -> pi0 e+e- and that its magnitude can be obtained from a measurement of the amplitudes in the K_L -> pi0 gamma gamma decay mode. We point out…
Rare kaon decays are an important testing ground of the electroweak flavor theory: They can provide new signals of CP-violating phenomena. The interplay of long-distance QCD effects in strangeness-changing transitions can be analyzed with…
