A sample of 3984 candidates the K+→π+γγ decay, with an estimated background 291±14 events, was collected by NA62 experiment at CERN during 2017–2018. In order to describe observed di-photon mass spectrum, next-to-leading contribution in chiral perturbation theory found be necessary. The decay branching ratio full kinematic range is measured (9.61±0.17)×10−7. first search for production and prompt axion-like particle gluon coupling process K+→π+a, a→γγ also reported.
The NA62 experiment at CERN SPS is designed to study the $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ decay.

A bstract sample of 1 . 3 × 10 5 K + → π 0 e νγ candidates with less than 1% background was collected by the NA62 experiment at CERN SPS in 2017–2018. Branching fraction measurements are obtained percent relative precision three restricted kinematic regions, improving on existing results a factor larger two. An asymmetry, possibly related to T-violation, is investigated no evidence observed within achieved precision.
A search for the $K^+\to\mu^-\nu e^+e^+$ decay, forbidden within Standard Model by either lepton number or flavour conservation depending on of emitted neutrino, has been performed using dataset collected NA62 experiment at CERN in 2016--2018. An upper limit $8.1\times 10^{-11}$ is obtained decay branching fraction 90% CL, improving a factor 250 over previous search.

Abstract The NA62 experiment at CERN utilises a differential Cherenkov counter with achromatic ring focus (CEDAR) for tagging kaons within an unseparated monochromatic beam of charged hadrons. CEDAR-H detector was developed to minimise the amount material in path by using hydrogen gas as radiator medium. shown satisfy kaon requirements test-beam before installation and commissioning experiment. performance measured data collected 2023.
