K e3 decays and CKM unitarity

Abstract: We present a detailed numerical study of the K e3 decays to O(p 6 , (m d − m u )p 2 , e 2 p 2 ) in chiral perturbation theory with virtual photons and leptons. We describe the extraction of the CKM matrix element |V us | from the experimental K e3 decay parameters. We propose a consistency check of the K + e3 and K 0 e3 data that is largely insensitive to the dominating theoretical uncertainties, in particular the contributions of O(p 6 ). Our analysis is highly relevant in view of the recent high statistics m… Show more

“…In addition, the separation between non-local and local contribution quantitatively depends on the choice of the renormalization scale µ, only the whole result for f 4 being scale independent. This dependence is found to be large [20]; for instance, at three typical values of the scale one finds…”
