I present several preliminary measurements from KTeV of the fundamental neutral kaon parameters, and their implications for CPT violation. A new limit is given on the sidereal time dependence of $\phi_{+-}$. The results are based on data…
The results of 2002 DAFNE operation for the two experiments KLOE and DEAR are described. During 2003 a long shutdown has been dedicated to the installation of new Interaction Regions (IR) and to hardware modifications and upgrades. In the…
We present a new search for the $K_S \to 3\pi^0$ decay performed with the KLOE detector operating at the DA$\Phi$NE $\phi$--factory. The $K_S$ mesons were tagged via registration of $K_L$ mesons which crossed the drift chamber without…
A proposal for maintaining CP conservation in $K_{L}^{0}$ decays is resumed, by adding a heterodox hypothesis. One recovers a consistent picture with a $2\pi$ $K_{L}^{0}$ decay branching ratio proportional to the vertical $K_{L}^{0}$…
The AMADEUS experiment aims to perform precision studies in the sector of low-energy kaon-nuclei interaction at the DA\Phi NE collider at LNF-INFN, implementing a dedicated setup in the central region of the KLOE detector. As a first step…
We study the interference of C70 fullerenes in a Talbot-Lau interferometer with a large separation between the diffraction gratings. This permits the observation of recurrences of the interference contrast both as a function of the de…

New kaon photoproduction data on a proton, gamma + p --> K+ + Lambda, are analyzed using a multipole approach. The background terms are given in terms of gauge invariant, crossing symmetric, Born diagrams with hadronic form factors, while…
At the Kaon Spectrometer KaoS at SIS, GSI the production of kaons and antikaons in heavy ion reactions at a beam energy of 1.5 AGeV has been measured for the collision systems Ni+Ni and Au+Au. The K-/K+ ratio is found to be constant for…
The KLOE experiment at the Frascati $\phi$-factory DA$\Phi$NE has collected about 0.5 fb$^{-1}$ of data till the end of the year 2002. These data allow to perform a wide physics program, ranging from the physics of charged and neutral kaons…
We consider the forward-backward pion charge asymmetry for the e^{+}e^{-}\to\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\gamma process. At tree level we consider bremsstrahlung and double resonance contributions. Although the latter contribution is formally sub-leading,…
We give the first full next-to-leading order analytical results in Chiral Perturbation Theory for the charged Kaon K \to 3 pi slope g and decay rates CP-violating asymmetries. We have included the dominant Final State Interactions at NLO…
We study the behaviour of correlated neutral kaons produced in phi-meson decays under the hypothesis that the quantum mechanical time-evolution is completely positive. We show that planned experiments at phi-factories could give precise…
We review recent progress in calculating kaon spectrum, pseudoscalar meson decay constants, $B_K$, $\epsilon'/\epsilon$, $K\to \pi\pi$ matrix elements, kaon semileptonic form factors, and moments of kaon distribution amplitudes on the…
This chapter provides an in-depth analysis of the properties and phenomena associated with neutral K-mesons. Kaons are quantum systems illustrating strange behaviours. We begin by examining the significance of strangeness and charge parity…
