Abstract

A precision test of lepton flavour universality has been performed by measuring the ratio R_K of kaon leptonic decay rates K⁺→e⁺ν and K⁺→μ⁺νin a sample of 59813 reconstructed K+→ℓ+ν candidates with (8.71±0.24)% background contamination. The result R_K=(2.487±0.013)×10^-5 is in agreement with the Standard Model expectation.
