We have measured the fully inclusive K+ -> mu+nu(gamma) absolute branching ratio with the KLOE experiment at DAFNE, the Frascati Phi-factory. From some 865,283 K+ -> mu+nu(gamma) decays obtained from a sample of about 5.2x10^8 Phi-meson decays, we find BR(K+ -> mu+ nu (gamma)) = 0.6366 +-0.0009(stat.) +-0.0015(syst.), corresponding to an overall fractional error of 0.27%. Using recent lattice results on the decay constants of pseudoscalar mesons one can obtain an estimate for the CKM mixing matrix element |Vus|=0.2223+-0.0026.

We have measured the absolute branching ratio of the K+ -> pi+ pi0 (gamma) decay, using about 20 million tagged K+ mesons collected with the KLOE detector at DAFNE, the Frascati phi-factory. Signal counts are obtained from the fit of the distribution of the momentum of the charged decay particle in the kaon rest frame. The result, inclusive of final-state radiation, is BR(K+ -> pi+ pi0 (gamma))=0.2065+/-0.0005_{stat}+/- 0.0008_{syst}.
We have analyzed 1.62 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collisions at a center of mass energy $sim M_{phi}$ collected by the KLOE experiment at DA$Phi$NE. This sample corresponds to a production of $sim$ 1.7 billion of $ks$ $kl$ pairs which allowed us to sea rch for the rare $K_Sto gammagamma$ decay. $K_S$ are tagged by the $K_L$ interaction in the calorimeter and the signal is searched for by requiring two additional prompt photons. Strong kinematic requirements reduce the initial 0.5$times 10^6$ events to 2300 candidates from which we extract a signal of 600 $pm$ 35 events. By normalizing to the $ks to 2 pi^0$ decays counted in the same sample, the measured value of BR($ks to gammagamma$) is (2.27 $pm 0.13(stat.) ^{+0.03}_{-0.04} (syst.)) times 10^{-6}$, in agreement with $O(P^4)$ Chiral Perturbation Theory predictions.
Based on a sample of 300 million $K_S$ mesons produced in $phi to K_L K_S$ decays recorded by the KLOE experiment at the DA$Phi$NE $e^+e^-$ collider we have measured the branching fraction for the decay $K_S to pi mu u$. The $K_S$ mesons are identif ied by the interaction of $K_L$ mesons in the detector. The $K_S to pi mu u$ decays are selected by a boosted decision tree built with kinematic variables and by a time-of-flight measurement. Signal efficiencies are evaluated with data control samples of $K_L to pi mu u$ decays. A fit to the reconstructed muon mass distribution finds $7223 pm 180$ signal events. Normalising to the $K_S to pi^+ pi^-$ decay events the result for the branching fraction is $mathcal{B}(K_S to pi mu u) = (4.56 pm 0.11_{rm stat} pm 0.17_{rm syst})times10^{-4}$.

We present the current status of the analysis of about 1.7 billion KSKL pair events collected at DAFNE with the KLOE detector to determine the branching ratio of KS -> pi e nu decay and the lepton charge asymmetry. This sample is ~4 times larger in s tatistics than the one used in a previous KLOE analysis, allowing us to improve the accuracy of the measurement and of the related tests of CPT symmetry and Delta S = Delta Q rule.

Three events for the decay K+ => pi+,nu,nubar have been observed in the pion momentum region below the K+ => pi+,pi0 peak, 140 < P_pi < 199 MeV/c, with an estimated background of 0.93+-0.17(stat.)+0.32-0.24(syst.) events. Combining this observation w ith previously reported results yields a branching ratio of B(K+ => pi+,nu,nubar) = (1.73+1.15-1.05)e-10 consistent with the standard model prediction.
