NA48/1 Motivations for a new BR(K S ) measurement It is a good test for ChPT (PRD 49 (1994) 2346) Experimental value of the BR changed along the years From 2003 it is known with a small error (3%) : BR(K S ) = (2.71 ± 0.06 ± 0.04) x due to a measurement of NA48/1 collaboration Differs from ChPT O(p 4 ) by 30% (possible large O(p 6 ) contribution). In NA48, the K L background is a relevant component of the fit. In KLOE, the background from K L is reduced to 0 (tagging). First measurement of this decay with a pure K S beam.
