A search for heavy neutral lepton production in $K^+$ decays using a data sample collected with minimum bias trigger by the NA62 experiment at CERN 2015 is reported. Upper limits $10^{-7}$ to $10^{-6}$ level are established on elements of extended neutrino mixing matrix $|U_{\ell 4}|^2$ ($\ell=e,\mu$) mass range $170-448~{\rm MeV}/c^2$. This improves results from previous searches decays, setting more stringent and extending range.
A search for heavy neutral lepton (N) production in K+→e+N decays using the data sample collected by NA62 experiment at CERN 2017–2018 is reported. Upper limits of extended neutrino mixing matrix element |Ue4|2 are established level 10−9 over most accessible mass range 144–462 MeV/c2, with assumption that lifetime exceeds 50 ns. These improve significantly upon those previous and decay searches. The favoured Big Bang Nucleosynthesis excluded up to a about 340 MeV/c2.
