Abstract
We present a measurement of the K–π vector current form-factor parameters for the decay KL→π±e∓ν. We use 328 pb−1 of data collected in 2001 and 2002, corresponding to ∼2 million Ke3 events. Measurements of semileptonic form factors provide information about the dynamics of the strong interaction and are necessary for evaluation of the phase-space integral IKe needed to measure the CKM matrix element |Vus| for KL→π±e∓ν decays. Our result is λ+=(28.6±0.5±0.4)×10−3 for a linear fit, and λ+′=(25.5±1.5±1.0)×10−3, λ+″=(1.4±0.7±0.4)×10−3 for a quadratic fit.
