A measurement of the decay rate for the process kaon(L) going to positive muon negative muon

A sample of 87 events of the GIM suppressed decay K\sb{\rm L} \to \mu\sp+\mu\sp- were observed in an experiment performed in 1988 at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. Concurrently, 8,887 examples of the CP-violating decay K\sb{\rm L} \to \pi\sp+\pi\sp- were also seen. The apparatus consisted of a double-magnet spectrometer as well as electromagnetic and muon detector systems. From the previously measured branching ratio for K\sb{\rm L} \to \pi\sp+\pi\sp- and the different instrumental acceptances of the detector for the two decays, the data sample was normalized to the effective number of K\sb{\rm L} decays observed. A value for the ratio (K\sb{\rm L} \to \mu\sp+\mu\sp-)/(K\sb{\rm L} \to anything) of (5.7 $\pm$ 0.6(stat.) $\pm$ 0.3(syst.)) $\times$ 10\sp{-9} was obtained
