Abstract
The and decay-mode Dalitz-plot distributions were studied for lepton momenta below 120 , using an exposure of the Brookhaven 30-in. propane bubble chamber to a stopping beam of mesons. The vector momentum of the was obtained with a typical error of 5% by considering only those events in which both rays from the decay converted to electron-positron pairs. Both decay modes are consistent with a pure vector interaction. 78 events yield the results, assuming to be independent of momentum transfer: , , and a discrimination of 150:1 against a second value of . There were 90 events consistent with a constant form factor , giving .
