We have measured the charged kaon lifetime using a sample of 15 times 10^6 tagged kaon decays. Charged kaons were produced in pairs at the DAPhiNE phi-factory, e^+e^- to phi to K^+ K^-. The decay of a K^+ was tagged by the production of a K^- and viceversa. The lifetime was obtained, for both charges, from independent measurements of the decay time and decay lenght distributions. From fits to the four distributions we find tau = (12.347pm0.030) ns.

Preliminary result on the charged kaon lifetime, obtained by the KLOE experiment operating at DA$Phi$NE, the Frascati $phi$-factory, is presented
We present a measurement of the KL lifetime using the KLOE detector. From a sample of 4 x 10^8 KS KL pairs following the reaction e+ e- -> phi -> KS KL we select 15 x 10^6 KL -> p0 p0 p0 decays tagged by KS -> pi+ pi- events. From a fit of the proper time distribution we find tau_L = (50.92 +- 0.17{stat} +- 0.25{syst})$ ns. This is the most precise measurement of the KL lifetime performed to date.
This paper is devoted to the measurement of the fully inclusive absolute branching ratios of the charged kaon semileptonic decays, $K^{pm}topi^0e^pm u(gamma)$ and $K^pm to pi^0mu^pm u(gamma)$. The measurements have been done using a tag technique, em ploying the two-body decays, $K^pm to mu^pm u$ and $K^pm to pi^pmpi^0$, and using a sample of about 410 pb$^{-1}$ collected during the 2001 and 2002 data taking of the KLOE experiment at Daphne, the Frascati $phi$-factory. The results obtained are BR(K$^pm_{e3}$) = $0.04965 (38)_{Stat} (37)_{Syst}$ and BR(K$^pm_{mu3}$) = $0.03233 (29)_{Stat} (26)_{Syst}$.
Using a large sample of pure, slow, short lived K0 mesons collected with KLOE detector at DaFne, we have measured the KS lifetime. From a fit to the proper time distribution we find tau = (89.562 +- 0.029_stat +- 0.043_syst) ps. This is the most prec ise measurement today in good agreement with the world average derived from previous measurements. We observe no dependence of the lifetime on the direction of the Ks.
In this paper we discuss the recent finalized analyses by the KLOE experiment at DA$Phi$NE: the CPT and Lorentz invariance test with entangled $K^0 bar{K}^0$ pairs, and the precision measurement of the branching fraction of the decay ${ K^+} rightarr ow pi^+pi^-pi^+(gamma)$. We also present the status of an ongoing analysis aiming to precisely measure the $K^{pm} $ mass.
