Status of K±p±p0 E. De Lucia
Strategy • Self-tag on one side using K- (nuclear interactions) • Vertex with 2 tracks in DC on the signal side BR(K±p±p0) = (21,13 ± 0.14)% DBR/BR = 6,6x10-3 Method: Fitting the distribution of the momentum of the secondary track (p*) in the kaon reference frame we can extract BR(K±p±p0) • The selection efficiency is only related to DC reconstruction: • tracking efficiency • vertex efficiency
mn peak vs p*(p mass) pp0 peak fit with p*(m mass) MC MC p* (MeV/c) p* (MeV/c) 2) Use the two “m-clusters” sample • hp:pp0 and mn have the same resolution function • p*(p mass) distribution for mn peak • p*(m mass) distribution for pp0 peak
In order to extract the number of pp0decays? • Check the estimate of the mn background • - require a p0 in the calo and measure the efficiency • Take into account the 3-body decays contribution • - fit the distribution down to 190 MeV in order to have • 3-body decays contribution only from kl3 channel The fit uses the MC shape for the 3-body decays contribution

The 2m-cluster sample: • reproduces the p*(mn) behavior • but • does not reproduce the p*(pp0) behavior at low and high p* • the fit overestimates 3-body decays and mn contribution • We have two possible strategies to measure BR(pp0): • 3s cut around the peak • require p0 in EMC and use the obtained p* shape

p*(pp0)MC p*(pp0)TAG+p0 p* (Kpp0 self-tag) • require p0 in EMC and use the p* shape • Check that p0 requirement does not introduce distortions • evaluate p0 reconstruction efficiency (ep0) with pp0 tag sample • compare DATA to MC (can we use MC ep0 for Kl3 ?) 10 pb-1 pp0 tag sample
