The Na62 Experiment

چکیده
— We discuss the NA62 experiment which aims at the search for phenomena beyond the Standard Model (SM) by measuring the ratio RK = Γ(K ± → eν(γ))/Γ(K → μν(γ)) and the ultra rare decay K → πνν. First, we summarize the status of the RK analysis, based on ∼ 40% of the 2007-2008 NA62 data set, then, we describe the NA62 proposal to measure the branching ratio of the very rare decay K → πνν and we give an update on the status of the detectors needed to perform the measurement.

The NA62 experiment [1] at CERN SPS (Super Proton Synchrotron) accelerator will be focused on precision tests of the Standard Model via studies of ultra-rare decays of charged kaons. The high resolution Liquid Krypton (LKr) calorimeter of the former NA48 experiment [2], together with other detectors, will provide a photon-veto with hermetic coverage from zero out to large angles from the decay ...
متن کاملKaon identification in the NA62 experiment at CERN
The main purpose of the NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS is to measure the Branching Ratio of the ultra-rare kaon decay K+ → π+νν̄ with 10% accuracy. This will be achieved by collecting about 100 events with a Signal to Background ratio of 10/1. NA62 will use a 75 GeV/c unseparated charged hadron beam and a kaon decay-in-flight technique. For the kaon identification a hydrogen gas-filled differen...
متن کاملStandard Model Tests at the NA62 CERN Experiment
The physics program of the NA62 experiment aims to search for phenomena beyond the Standard Model by measuring the ratio RK = Γ(K→eνe(γ)) Γ(K→μνμ (γ)) and studying the ultra rare decay K + → π+νν . The status of the RK analysis based on ∼ 40% of the data collected during 2007 and 2008 is summarized and the proposed detector layout to measure the branching ratio of the K+ → π+νν decay is described.
متن کاملChiral Perturbation Theory tests at NA48/2 and NA62 experiments at CERN
Final results from an analysis of about 400 K± → π±γγ rare decay candidates collected by the NA48/2 and NA62 experiments at CERN during low intensity runs with minimum bias trigger configurations are presented. The results include a model-independent decay rate measurement and fits to Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) descriptions. The data support the ChPT prediction for a cusp in the di-photo...
متن کاملThe Trigger and DAQ system for the NA62 experiment
The main goal of the NA62 experiment is to measure the branching ratio of the K → πνν̄ decay, collecting O(100) events in two years of data taking. Efficient online selection of interesting events and loss-less readout at high rate will be key issues for such experiment. An integrated trigger and data acquisition system has been designed. Only the very first trigger stage will be implemented in ...
