Phys. J. C PY 2010 BP 399 EP 424 VL 69 IS 3-4 DI 10.1140/epjc/s10052-010-1406-3 LA English AB We present a global analysis of leptonic and semileptonic kaon decay data, including all recent results published by the BNL-E865, KLOE, KTeV, ISTRA+ and NA48 experiments. This analysis, in conjunction with precise lattice calculations of the hadronic matrix elements now available, leads to a very precise determination of broken vertical bar V-us broken vertical bar and allows us to perform several stringent tests of the Standard Model.
