KLOE has measured most decay branching ratios of Ks, Kl and K+/- mesons. It has also measured the Kl and the K+- lifetime and determined the shape of the form factors involved in kaon semileptonic decays. We present in the following a…
The two most precise determinations of the CKM matrix element V_us are based on the analyses of leptonic and semileptonic kaon decays. These studies also rely on the lattice QCD calculations of two hadronic parameters, namely the ratio of…

Till the middle of 2004 it appeared that the unitarity relation Vud^2+Vus^2+Vub^2=1 might not hold at the 2.3sigma level. At that time, however, Vus was inferred from old experimental data. Since then, a large experimental and theoretical…
