In particular, we provide a detailed analysis of the Dalitz plot for the long-distance, gamma*-mediated, contributions (Brems-strahlung, direct emission and its interference). We also examine a set of asymmetries to isolate genuine short-distance effects. While we show that charge asymmetries are not required to test short distances, they provide the best environment for its detection. This constitutes by itself a strong motivation for NA62 to study K- decays in the future. We therefore provide a detailed study of different charge asymmetries and the corresponding estimated signals. Whenever possible, we make contact with the related processes K+ -> pi(+) pi(0)gamma and K-L -> pi(+) pi(0)e(+) e(-) and discuss the advantages of K+ -> pi(+) pi(0)e(+) e(-) over them.", optnote="WOS:000300631800001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=928), last updated on Thu, 22 Mar 2012 12:44:27 +0000", issn="1434-6044", doi="10.1140/epjc/s10052-012-1872-x", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1112.5184", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-012-1872-x", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1112.5184", language="English" }
