In-flight search for K⁺ → π⁺νν: First NA62 results

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference Contribution (Conference Proceeding)

Abstract

NA62 has searched for the K⁺ → π⁺νν decay using a new kaon decay in-flight technique. One candidate event, compatible with the Standard Model prediction, has been observed from a sample of 1.2 ×10¹¹ decays. Assuming that the event is background, an upper limit of 1.4 ×10⁻⁹ (95% CL) has been placed. Prospects for further improvements of the measurement are given.
