Dispersive representation of the K pi vector form factor and fits to tau -> K pi nu(tau) and Ke3 data

Abstract

Recently, we introduced several dispersive representations for the vector $Kπ$ form factor and fitted them to the Belle spectrum of $τ\to K πν_τ$. Here, we briefly present the model and discuss the results for the slope and curvature of $F_+(s)$ arising from the best fit. Furthermore, we compare the pole position of the charged $K^*(892)$ computed from our model with other results in the literature. Finally, we discuss the prospects of a simultaneous fit to $τ\to K πν_τ$ and $K_{e3}$ spectra.
