We present new results on the related rare KL decay modes KL -> pi+ pi- gamma and KL -> pi+ pi- e+ e-. KTeV has performed the first direct measurement of the form factor for the direct emission component of KL -> pi+ pi- gamma decays, a quantity with ramifications for particular chiral models. In addition, the form factor and direct emission/inner bremsstrahlung branching ratio - also presented here - are important input parameters for the understanding of the planar-angle distribution of KL -> pi+ pi- e+ e- decays. Preliminary results indicating the presence of a T-violating asymmetry in the KL -> pi+ pi- e+ e- angular distribution are presented.

We have perfomed studies of the KL to PI+PI-GAMMA Direct Emission (DE) and Inner Bremsstrahlung (IB) vertices, based on data collected by KTeV during the 1996 Fermilab fixed target run. We find a1/a2 = -0.737 +- 0.034 GeV^2 for the DE form-factor par ameter in the rho-propagator parametrization, and report on fits of the form-factor to linear and quadratic functions as well. We concurrently measure B.R.(KL to PI+PI-GAMMA, E_gamma >20 MeV)/(KL to PI+PI-) = (20.8 +- 0.3)*10^-3, and a KL to PI+PI-GAMMA DE/(DE + IB) branching ratio of 0.683 +- 0.011.
We study the process e+e- -> pi+pi-pi+pi-gamma, with a photon emitted from the initial-state electron or positron, using 454.3 fb^-1 of data collected with the BABAR detector at SLAC, corresponding to approximately 260,000 signal events. We use these data to extract the non-radiative sigma(e+e- ->pi+pi-pi+pi-) cross section in the energy range from 0.6 to 4.5 Gev. The total uncertainty of the cross section measurement in the peak region is less than 3%, higher in precision than the corresponding results obtained from energy scan data.
Based on a sample of 225.3 million J/psi events accumulated with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII, the decays of eta to pi+pi-l+l- are studied via J/psi to gammaeta. A clear eta signal is observed in the pi+pi-e+e- mass spectrum, and the branching f raction is measured to be BR(eta to pi+pi-e+e-) = (2.11pm0.12 (stat.)pm0.15 (syst.))times10^{-3}, which is in good agreement with theoretical predictions and the previous measurement, but is determined with much higher precision. No eta signal is found in the pi+ pi- mu+ mu- mass spectrum, and the upper limit is determined to be BR(eta to pi+ pi- mu+ mu-)<2.9times10^{-5} at the 90% confidence level.

We report the first observation of a manifestly CP violating effect in the K(L)->pi+pi-e+e- decay mode. A large asymmetry was observed in the distribution of these decays in the CP-odd and T-odd angle phi between the decay planes of the e+e- and pi+p i- pairs in the K(L) center of mass system. After acceptance corrections, the overall asymmetry is found to be 13.6+-2.5 (stat) +-1.2 (syst)%. This is the largest CP-violating effect yet observed integrating over the entire phase space of a mode and the first such effect observed in an angular variable.
We present measurements of R_Kl3rad = Gamma(KL->piell ugamma; Egcm > 10 MeV)/Gamma(KL->piell u), where ell = mu or e, and Egcm is the photon energy in the kaon rest frame. These measurements are based on KL decays collected in 1997 by the KTeV (E832) experiment at Fermilab. With samples of 1385 KL->pimu ugamma and 14221 KL->pie ugamma candidates, we find R_Km3rad = (0.530 +- 0.019)% and R_Ke3rad = (4.942 +- 0.062)%. We also examine distributions of photon energy and lepton-photon angle.
