Abstract
A measurement of the branching ratio for K-s --> e(+)e(-) decay was pe rformed with the CPLEAR detector at LEAR. Full event reconstruction to gether with calorimeter e/pi separation allowed for powerful backgroun d rejection and high signal acceptance. Analysis of data taken up to 1 994 yields the result: Br(K-s --> e(+)e(-)) < 4.2.10(-7) (90% CL).
