Study of the process e+e- -> omega p0 with the KLOE detector

Using ~600 pb-1 collected with the KLOE detector at DAPhiNE, we have studied the production cross section of pi+ pi- pi0 pi0 and p0p0 gamma final states in e+e- collisions at center of mass energies between 1000 and 1030 MeV. By fitting the observed interference pattern around Mphi for both final states, we extract a measurement (preliminary) for the ratio Gamma(omega -> pi0 gamma)/Gamma(omega -> pi+ pi- pi0) = 0.0934 +- 0.0022. Since these two final states represent the 98% of the omega decay channels, we use unitarity to derive BR(omega -> pi+pi-pi0)= (89.94 +- 0.23)% and BR(omega -> pi0 gamma) = (8.40 +- 0.19)%. Moreover, the parameters describing the e+e- -> pi+ pi- pi0 pi0 reaction around Mphi are used to extract the branching fraction for the OZI and G-parity violating phi -> omega pi0 decay: BR(phi -> omega pi0) = (5.63 +- 0.70) x 10^-5.

Measurement of the slope parameter αfor the η\to 3π^0 decay at KLOE

We report a preliminary measurement of the slope parameter $α$ for the $η\to 3\piz$ decay carried out with KLOE at DA$Φ$NE; where $α$ is the parameter describing the energy dependence of the square of the matrix element for this decay. By fitting the event density in the Dalitz plot with a collected statistic of 420 pb$^{-1}$ we determine $α= -0.027 \pm 0.004 (stat) ^{+0.004}_{-0.006} (syst)$. This result is consistent with current chiral perturbation theory calculations within the unitary approach.

Determination of the η\toπ^+π^-π^0 Dalitz Plot slopes and asymmetries with the KLOE detector

We have studied, with the KLOE detector at the DA$Φ$NE $Φ$-Factory, the dynamics of the decay $η\toπ^+π^-π^0$ using data from the radiative $ϕ\toηγ$ decay for an integrated luminosity $L = 450 \textrm{pb^{-1}}$. From a fit to the Dalitz plot density distribution we obtain a precise measurement of the slope parameters. This should allow to improve the knowledge of the decay amplitude which is sensitive to the u-d quark mass difference. We also present new best results on the C-violating asymmetries in the $η\toπ^+π^-π^0$ decay.

Measurement of Hadronic Cross Section at Kloe

In the fixed energy environment of the $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider DA$Φ$NE, KLOE can measure the cross section of the process $e^{+}e^{-} \to hadrons$ as a function of the hadronic system energy using the radiative return method. At energies below 1 GeV, $e^{+}e^{-} \to ρ\to π^{+}π^{-}$ is the dominating hadronic process. We report here on the status of the analysis of the process $e^{+}e^{-} \to π^{+}π^{-}γ$. Some preliminary results on the invariant mass spectrum of the two pion system, obtained from the analysis of 22.6 pb$^{-1}$, are presented.

Contribution of the direct decay $ϕ\toπ^+ π^- γ$ to the process $e^+ e^- \to π^+ π^- γ$ at DA$Φ$NE

The potential of DAPHNE to explore direct radiative decay $ϕ\to π^+ π^- γ$ is studied in detail. Predictions of different theoretical models for this decay are compared. We find that it should be possible to discriminate between these models at DAPHNE in one year, even assuming a relatively low luminosity ${\cal{L}} = 10^{31} {\rm cm}^{-2} {\rm sec^{-1}}$. The influence of the decay $ϕ\to π^+ π^- γ$ on the measurement of total cross section $σ(e^+e^- \to {\rm hadrons})$ by tagging a photon in the reaction $e^+e^- \to π^+π^- γ$ is also discussed.
