The NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS is aimed at measuring the branching fraction of the ultrarare decay K+ ? ?+vbar v with ~10% precision by collecting ~1013 kaon decays in two years of data taking. This amount of data will allow to carry out a wide program of searching for rare and forbidden (within the Standard Model) K+ and ?0 decays, including sterile neutrinos, lepton flavor violating modes, exotic particles (e.g. "dark photons"). The expected performances of the NA62 setup will allow to improve existing limits for several decay modes.

Abstract
The NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS is aimed at measuring the branching fraction of the ultrarare decay K+ ? ?+vbar v with ~10% precision by collecting ~1013 kaon decays in two years of data taking. This amount of data will allow to carry out a wide program of searching for rare and forbidden (within the Standard Model) K+ and ?0 decays, including sterile neutrinos, lepton flavor violating modes, exotic particles (e.g. "dark photons"). The expected performances of the NA62 setup will allow to improve existing limits for several decay modes.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
