Description

The first observation of the decay K_S -> π⁰ e⁺e^- will be presented. The measurement is based on the data collected by the NA48/1 experiment during the 2002 SPS proton run at CERN. The measurement determines the mixing induced CP-violating component of the decay K_L -> π⁰ e⁺e^-. The implications for future CP-violation studies in rare kaon decays will be discussed.

Organiser: Jasper Kirkby / EP Division
* Tea & coffee will be served at 16.00 hrs.
