Abstract

Using 467 fb(-1) of e+e- annihilation data collected with the BABAR detector, we measure (B( - - ( ) ( )))/(B( - e- (e) ( ))) =(0.9796 0.0016 0.0036), (B( - - ( )))/(B( - e- (e) ( ))) = (0.5945 0.0014 0.0061), and (B( - K- ( )))/(B( - e- (e) ( ))) = (0.03882 0.00032 0.00057), where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. From these precision measurements, we test the standard model assumption of -e and - charge current lepton universality and provide determinations of |Vus| experimentally independent of the decay of a kaon.
