Dispersive representation of the scalar and vector Kpi form factors for tau --> K pi nu_tau and K_{l3} decays

Recently, the tau --> K pi nu_tau decay spectrum has been measured by the Belle and BaBar collaborations. In this work, we present an analysis of such decays introducing a dispersive parametrization for the vector and scalar Kpi form factors. This allows for precise tests of the Standard Model. For instance, the determination of f_+(0)|V_{us}| from these decays is discussed. A comparison and a combination of these results with the analyses of the K_{l3} decays is also considered.

The Kpi vector form factor and constraints from Kl3 decays

The slope and curvature parameters of the $Kπ$ vector form factor, $F_+^{Kπ}$, are fitted to the data on $\tauKpi$ and $K_{l3}$ decays yielding $λ_+'=(25.49 \pm 0.31) \times 10^{-3}$ and $λ_+"= (12.22 \pm 0.14) \times 10^{-4}$. The pole position of the $K^*(892)^\pm$ is found to be at $m_{K^*(892)^\pm}= 892.0\pm 0.5$ MeV and $Γ_{K^*(892)^\pm}= 46.5 \pm1.1$ MeV. The phase-space integrals relevant for $K_{l3}$ analyses and the $P$-wave isospin-1/2 $Kπ$ phase-shift threshold parameters are also calculated.

Improving the Kpi vector form factor through Kl3 constraints

The $Kπ$ vector form factor, $F_+^{Kπ}$, used to reproduce the Belle spectrum of $\tauKpi$ decays is described by means of a three-times subtracted dispersion relation also incorporating constraints from $K_{l3}$ decays. The slope and curvature of $F_+^{Kπ}$ are fitted to the data yielding $λ_+'=(25.49 \pm 0.31) \times 10^{-3}$ and $λ_+"= (12.22 \pm 0.14) \times 10^{-4}$. The pole parameters of the $K^*(892)^\pm$ are found to be $m_{K^*(892)^\pm}= 892.0\pm 0.5$ MeV and $Γ_{K^*(892)^\pm}= 46.5 \pm1.1$ MeV. The phase-space integrals relevant for $K_{l3}$ analyses and the $P$-wave isospin-1/2 $Kπ$ phase-shift threshold parameters are also calculated.

Constraining the Kpi vector form factor by tau---> K pi nu_tau and K_l3 decay data

A subtracted dispersive representation of the $Kπ$ vector form factor, $F_+^{Kπ}$, is used to fit the Belle spectrum of $\tauKpi$ decays incorporating constraints from results on $K_{l3}$ decays. Through the use of three subtractions, the slope and curvature of $F_+^{Kπ}$ are obtained directly from the data yielding $λ_+'=(25.49 \pm 0.31) \times 10^{-3}$ and $λ_+"= (12.22 \pm 0.14) \times 10^{-4}$. The phase-space integrals relevant for $K_{l3}$ analyses are calculated. Additionally, from the pole position on the second Riemann sheet the mass and width of the $K^*(892)^\pm$ are found to be $m_{K^*(892)^\pm}= 892.0\pm 0.5$ MeV and $Γ_{K^*(892)^\pm}= 46.5 \pm 1.1$ MeV. Finally, we study the $P$-wave isospin-1/2 $Kπ$ phase-shift and its threshold parameters.

Dispersive representation of the K pi vector form factor and fits to tau -> K pi nu(tau) and Ke3 data

Recently, we introduced several dispersive representations for the vector $Kπ$ form factor and fitted them to the Belle spectrum of $τ\to K πν_τ$. Here, we briefly present the model and discuss the results for the slope and curvature of $F_+(s)$ arising from the best fit. Furthermore, we compare the pole position of the charged $K^*(892)$ computed from our model with other results in the literature. Finally, we discuss the prospects of a simultaneous fit to $τ\to K πν_τ$ and $K_{e3}$ spectra.

K pi vector form factor, dispersive constraints and tau -> nu_tau K pi decays

Recent experimental data for the differential decay distribution of the decay $τ^-\toν_τK_Sπ^-$ by the Belle collaboration are described by a theoretical model which is composed of the contributing vector and scalar form factors $F_+^{Kπ}(s)$ and $F_0^{Kπ}(s)$. Both form factors are constructed such that they fulfil constraints posed by analyticity and unitarity. A good description of the experimental measurement is achieved by incorporating two vector resonances and working with a three-times subtracted dispersion relation in order to suppress higher-energy contributions. The resonance parameters of the charged $K^*(892)$ meson, defined as the pole of $F_+^{Kπ}(s)$ in the complex $s$-plane, can be extracted, with the result $M_{K^*}=892.0 \pm 0.9 $MeV and $Γ_{K^*}=46.2 \pm 0.4 $MeV. Finally, employing the three-subtracted dispersion relation allows to determine the slope and curvature parameters $λ_+^{'}=(24.7\pm 0.8)\cdot 10^{-3}$ and $λ_+^{''}=(12.0\pm 0.2)\cdot 10^{-4}$ of the vector form factor $F_+^{Kπ}(s)$ directly from the data.
