Updated measurement of the Dalitz plot slope parameters for $K^- \rightarrow \pi^0\, \pi^0\, \pi^-$ decay using ISTRA+ detector
Protvino, 2003.- p.9, figs. 8, table 1, refs.:21.


The Dalitz plot slope parameters g, h and k for the $K^- \rightarrow \pi^0\, \pi^0\, \pi^-$ decay have been measured using in-flight decays detected with the "ISTRA+" setup operating in the 25 GeV negative secondary beam of the U-70 PS. About 252K events with four-momenta measured for the pi- and four involved photons were used for the analysis. The values obtained
$g=0.627\pm0.004(stat)\pm0.010(syst)$,
$h=0.046\pm0.004(stat)\pm0.012(syst)$,
$k=0.001\pm0.001(stat)\pm0.002(syst)$,
are consistent with the world averages dominated by K+ data, but have significantly smaller errors.
