Description

We present lattice results for the form factors relevant for K -> pi l nu decays, obtained from simulations performed by the European Twisted Mass Collaboration with Nf=2+1+1 flavors of dynamical quarks, at three values of the lattice spacing and pion masses as low as 250 MeV. Our determination of f_+(0), which in combination with the experimental result for (f_+(0)*V_us) can be used to determine the CKM matrix element, will be presented along with a study of both the vector and the scalar form factors as functions of the momentum transfer comparing our results with the experimental ones.
