The kaon electromagnetic form factor


Abstract in English

We use recent data on K^+ -> pi^+ e^+ e^-, together with known values for the pion form factor, to derive experimental values for the kaon electromagnetic form factor for 0 < q^2 < 0.125 (GeV/c)^2. The results are then compared with the predictions of the Vector Meson Dominance model, which gives a good fit to the experimental results.
