Measurement of the spectral function for the τ- →k-KSντ decay

open238siThe decay tau(-) -> K- K(S)v(tau) has been studied using 430 x 10(6) e(+) e(-) -> tau(+) tau(-) events produced at a center-of-mass energy around 10.6 GeV at the PEP-II collider and studied with the BABAR detector. The mass spectrum of the K- K-S system has been measured and the spectral function has been obtained. The measured branching fraction B(tau(-) -> K- K(S)v(tau)) = (0.739 +/- 0.011 (stat) +/- 0.020 (syst)) x 10(-3) is found to be in agreement with earlier measurements.openLees, J.P.; Poireau, V.; Tisserand, V.; Grauges, E.; Palano, A.; Eigen, G.; Brown, D.N.; Kolomensky, Yu.G.; Fritsch, M.; Koch, H.; Schroeder, T.; Hearty, C.; Mattison, T.S.; McKenna, J.A.; So, R.Y.; Blinov, V.E.; Buzykaev, A.R.; Druzhinin, V.P.; Golubev, V.B.; Kozyrev, E.A.; Kravchenko, E.A.; Onuchin, A.P.; Serednyakov, S.I.; Skovpen, Yu.I.; Solodov, E.P.; Todyshev, K.Yu.; Lankford, A.J.; Gary, J.W.; Long, O.; Eisner, A.M.; Lockman, W.S.; Panduro Vazquez, W.; Chao, D.S.; Cheng, C.H.; Echenard, B.; Flood, K.T.; Hitlin, D.G.; Kim, J.; Li, Y.; Miyashita, T.S.; Ongmongkolkul, P.; Porter, F.C.; Röhrken, M.; Huard, Z.; Meadows, B.T.; Pushpawela, B.G.; Sokoloff, M.D.; Sun, L.; Smith, J.G.; Wagner, S.R.; Bernard, D.; Verderi, M.; Bettoni, D.; Bozzi, C.; Calabrese, R.; Cibinetto, G.; Fioravanti, E.; Garzia, I.; Luppi, E.; Santoro, V.; Calcaterra, A.; De Sangro, R.; Finocchiaro, G.; Martellotti, S.; Patteri, P.; Peruzzi, I.M.; Piccolo, M.; Rotondo, M.; Zallo, A.; Passaggio, S.; Patrignani, C.; Lacker, H.M.; Bhuyan, B.; Mallik, U.; Chen, C.; Cochran, J.; Prell, S.; Gritsan, A.V.; Arnaud, N.; Davier, M.; Le Diberder, F.; Lutz, A.M.; Wormser, G.; Lange, D.J.; Wright, D.M.; Coleman, J.P.; Gabathuler, E.; Hutchcroft, D.E.; Payne, D.J.; Touramanis, C.; Bevan, A.J.; Di Lodovico, F.; Sacco, R.; Cowan, G.; Banerjee, Sw.; Brown, D.N.; Davis, C.L.; Denig, A.G.; Gradl, W.; Griessinger, K.; Hafner, A.; Schubert, K.R.; Barlow, R.J.; Lafferty, G.D.; Cenci, R.; Jawahery, A.; Roberts, D.A.; Cowan, R.; Robertson, S.H.; Seddon, R.M.; Dey, B.; Neri, N.; Palombo, F.; Cheaib, R.; Cremaldi, L.; Godang, R.; Summers, D.J.; Taras, P.; De Nardo, G.; Sciacca, C.; Raven, G.; Jessop, C.P.; Losecco, J.M.; Honscheid, K.; Kass, R.; Gaz, A.; Margoni, M.; Posocco, M.; Simi, G.; Simonetto, F.; Stroili, R.; Akar, S.; Ben-Haim, E.; Bomben, M.; Bonneaud, G.R.; Calderini, G.; Chauveau, J.; Marchiori, G.; Ocariz, J.; Biasini, M.; Manoni, E.; Rossi, A.; Batignani, G.; Bettarini, S.; Carpinelli, M.; Casarosa, G.; Chrzaszcz, M.; Forti, F.; Giorgi, M.A.; Lusiani, A.; Oberhof, B.; Paoloni, E.; Rama, M.; Rizzo, G.; Walsh, J.J.; Zani, L.; Smith, A.J.S.; Anulli, F.; Faccini, R.; Ferrarotto, F.; Ferroni, F.; Pilloni, A.; Piredda, G.; Bünger, C.; Dittrich, S.; Grünberg, O.; Heß, M.; Leddig, T.; Voß, C.; Waldi, R.; Adye, T.; Wilson, F.F.; Emery, S.; Vasseur, G.; Aston, D.; Cartaro, C.; Convery, M.R.; Dorfan, J.; Dunwoodie, W.; Ebert, M.; Field, R.C.; Fulsom, B.G.; Graham, M.T.; Hast, C.; Innes, W.R.; Kim, P.; Leith, D.W.G.S.; Luitz, S.; Macfarlane, D.B.; Muller, D.R.; Neal, H.; Ratcliff, B.N.; Roodman, A.; Sullivan, M.K.; Va'Vra, J.; Wisniewski, W.J.; Purohit, M.V.; Wilson, J.R.; Randle-Conde, A.; Sekula, S.J.; Ahmed, H.; Bellis, M.; Burchat, P.R.; Puccio, E.M.T.; Alam, M.S.; Ernst, J.A.; Gorodeisky, R.; Guttman, N.; Peimer, D.R.; Soffer, A.; Spanier, S.M.; Ritchie, J.L.; Schwitters, R.F.; Izen, J.M.; Lou, X.C.; Bianchi, F.; De Mori, F.; Filippi, A.; Gamba, D.; Lanceri, L.; Vitale, L.; Martinez-Vidal, F.; Oyanguren, A.; Albert, J.; Beaulieu, A.; Bernlochner, F.U.; King, G.J.; Kowalewski, R.; Lueck, T.; Nugent, I.M.; Roney, J.M.; Sobie, R.J.; Tasneem, N.; Gershon, T.J.; Harrison, P.F.; Latham, T.E.; Prepost, R.; Wu, S.L.Lees, J.

Ground truth data requirements for altimeter performance verification

The amount and type of ground truth required for an altimeter experiment is a function of the uncertainty in the satellite orbit, the altimeter error budget and the type of operation being performed. Ground truth requirements will be discussed with reference to three areas of operation: the global mode, the high intensity mode and calibration
