Abstract: (Elsevier)
We have studied the vector to pseudoscalar conversion decay ϕ→ηe+e− , with η→π0π0π0 , with the KLOE detector at DA Φ NE. The data set of 1.7 fb−1 of e+e− collisions at s∼Mϕ contains a clear conversion decay signal of ∼31,000 events from which we measured a value of BR(ϕ→ηe+e−)=(1.075±0.007±0.038)×10−4 . The same sample is used to determine the transition form factor by a fit to the e+e− invariant mass spectrum, obtaining bϕη=(1.28±0.10−0.08+0.09) GeV−2 , that improves by a factor of five the precision of the previous measurement and is in good agreement with VMD expectations.Note:
