The recent discovery of a large CP violating asymmetry in K(L) --> PI+ PI- E+ E- mode has prompted us to seach for the associated K(L) --> PI0 PI0 E+ E- decay mode in the KTeV-E799 experiment at Fermilab. In 2.7E+11 K(L) decays, one…
The KTeV experiment at Fermilab has isolated a total of 132 events from the rare decay KL->e+e-mu+mu-, with an estimated background of 0.8 events. The branching ratio of this mode is determined to be 2.69 +/- 0.24 (stat) +/- 0.12 (syst) x…

Investigation at a $\phi$--factory can shed light on several debated issues in particle physics. We discuss: i) recent theoretical development and experimental progress in kaon physics relevant for the Standard Model tests in the flavor…
Recently, several anomalies in flavor physics have been observed, and it was noticed that leptoquarks might account for the deviations from the Standard Model. In this work, we examine the effects of new physics originating from a scalar…
We report on a search for the decay Kl -> pi0 e+ e- carried out by the KTeV/E799 experiment at Fermilab. This decay is expected to have a significant CP violating contribution and the measurement of its branching ratio could support the CKM…

Among some 400 million KsKl pairs produced in e+e- annihilations at DAFNE, about 6500 each of Ks->pi+e-nubar and Ks->pi-e+nu decays have been observed with the KLOE detector. From these, the ratio…
CP violation in the neutral kaon system is known to be dominated by the mixing of K0 and anti-K0. Direct CP violation in the 2 pion decays of neutral kaons has been a controversial subject over the last decade. A strong experimental effort…
Recent results from a rare kaon decay experiment E787 at the BNL-AGS on K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar\nu, K^+ \to \mu^+ \nu \gamma, and K^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^0 \gamma decays are reported.
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…

Recent precise measurements of CP violation parameters in kaon decays at the NA48 experiment: indirect CPV parameter $|\eta_{+-}|$, and charge asymmetries in $K^\pm\to3\pi$ decays, are presented.
We review some recent theoretical results on rare kaon decays. Particular attention is devoted to find Standard Model tests. This is theoretically easy in $K\to \pi \nu \bar{\nu}$, while a careful study of the long distance contributions is…
I discuss recent developments on non-leptonic and radiative kaon decays mainly related to direct CP-violation within the combined ChPT and 1/N_c expansion approaches. In particular, I review the status of K -> pi pi, epsilon_K', direct…

Rare Kaon decays and CP violation are important tools to test the Standard Model and its extensions. We describe kaon physics observables testing CP violation and more generally short distance physics. Channels under consideration will be K…
