    An algebra homomorphism ψ\psi from the q-deformed algebra Uq(iso2)U_q({\rm iso}_2) with generating elements II, T1T_1, T2T_2 and defining relations [I,T2]q=T1[I,T_2]_q=T_1, [T1,I]q=T2[T_1,I]_q=T_2, [T2,T1]q=0[T_2,T_1]_q=0 (where [A,B]q=q1/2ABq1/2BA[A,B]_q=q^{1/2}AB-q^{-1/2}BA) to the extension U^q(m2){\hat U}_q({\rm m}_2) of the Hopf algebra Uq(m2)U_q({\rm m}_2) is constructed. The algebra Uq(iso2)U_q({\rm iso}_2) at q=1q=1 leads to the Lie algebra iso2m2{\rm iso}_2 \sim {\rm m}_2 of the group ISO(2) of motions of the Euclidean plane. The Hopf algebra Uq(m2)U_q({\rm m}_2) is treated as a Hopf qq-deformation of the universal enveloping algebra of iso2{\rm iso}_2 and is well-known in the literature. Not all irreducible representations of Uq(m2)U_q({\rm m}_2) can be extended to representations of the extension U^q(m2){\hat U}_q({\rm m}_2). Composing the homomorphism ψ\psi with irreducible representations of U^q(m2){\hat U}_q({\rm m}_2) we obtain representations of Uq(iso2)U_q({\rm iso}_2). Not all of these representations of Uq(iso2)U_q({\rm iso}_2) are irreducible. The reducible representations of Uq(iso2)U_q({\rm iso}_2) are decomposed into irreducible components. In this way we obtain all irreducible representations of Uq(iso2)U_q({\rm iso}_2) when qq is not a root of unity. A part of these representations turns into irreducible representations of the Lie algebra iso2_2 when q1q\to 1. Representations of the other part have no classical analogue.Comment: 12 pages, LaTe

    Measurement of the K+μ+νμγK^+\rightarrow{\mu^+}{\nu_{\mu}}{\gamma} decay form factors in the OKA experiment

    Full text link
    A precise measurement of the vector and axial-vector form factors difference FVFAF_V-F_A in the K+μ+νμγK^+\rightarrow{\mu^+}{\nu_{\mu}}{\gamma} decay is presented. About 95K events of K+μ+νμγK^+\rightarrow{\mu^+}{\nu_{\mu}}{\gamma} are selected in the OKA experiment. The result is FVFA=0.134±0.021(stat)±0.027(syst)F_V-F_A=0.134\pm0.021(stat)\pm0.027(syst). Both errors are smaller than in the previous FVFAF_V-F_A measurements.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figure

    Searches for the light invisible axion-like particle in K+π+π0aK^{+}\to\pi^{+}\pi^{0}a decay

    Full text link
    A high statistics data sample of the K+K^{+} decays is recorded by the OKA collaboration. A missing mass analysis is performed to search for a light invisible pseudoscalar axion-like particle (ALP) aa in the decay K+π+π0aK^{+} \to \pi^{+} \pi^{0} a. No signal is observed, the upper limits for the branching ratio of the decay are calculated. The 90%90\% confidence level upper limit is changing from 2.51062.5\cdot10^{-6} to 21072\cdot10^{-7} for the ALP mass from 0 to 200 MeV/c2c^{2}, except for the region of π0\pi^{0} mass, where the upper limit is 4.41064.4\cdot10^{-6}.Comment: 6 pages, 6 figure

    Study of the decay K+π+ππ+γK^{+}\to\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{+}\gamma in the OKA experiment

    Full text link
    A high statistics data sample of the decays of K+K^+ mesons to three charged particles was accumulated by the OKA experiment in 2012 and 2013. This allowed to select a clean sample of about 450 events with K+π+ππ+γK^{+}\to\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{+}\gamma decays with the energy of the photon in the kaon rest frame greater than 30 MeV. The measured branching fraction of the K+π+ππ+γK^{+}\to\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{+}\gamma, with EγE_{\gamma}^{*} > 30 MeV is (0.71±0.05)×105(0.71 \pm 0.05) \times 10^{-5}. The measured energy spectrum of the decay photon is compared with the prediction of the chiral perturbation theory to O(p4)(p^{4}). A search for an up-down asymmetry of the photon with respect to the hadronic system decay plane is also performed.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, 1 tabl
