Radiative Kaon decays in NA62

Eduardo Cortina Gil

ALthough the study of rare kaon radiative decays is not the main objective of NA62, both the detector and the beam are fully adapted to their study.

Among all radiative kaon decays, two channels are going to be studied in depth in order to see if NA62 could provide extra information:
$Formula: 0$ and $Formula: 1$ . These channels can provide information about direct CP violation and QCD-QED interplay.

Test of Lepton Flavour Universality in Kaon Decays

Eduardo Cortina Gil

A precision test of lepton flavour universality can be performed by measuring the ratio RK of kaon leptonic decay rates $Formula: 0$ and $Formula: 1$ . Any deviation of the expected Standard Model prediction will be a hint of New Physics. This measurement has been performed at one percent level with the NA62 data taken in 2007 and 2008 $Formula: 2$ in complete agreement with the Standard Model expectation. A prospective analysis for the improvement of this measurement with the full NA62 apparatus is underway.

External collaborators: Augusto Ceccucci (CERN), Cristina Lazzeroni (Birmingham).
