Abstract

The NA62 experiment at CERN collected a large sample of charged kaon decays in ight with a minimum bias trigger in 2007. Upper limits on the rate of the charged kaon decay into a muon and a heavy neutral lepton (HNL) obtained from this data are reported for a range of HNL masses. The NA62 experiment has collected further data in 2015 with a completely new and improved detector. New limits on heavy neutrinos from kaon decays into electron and HNL will be presented.

Highlights

  • The NA62 experiment at CERN collected a large sample of charged kaon decays in flight with a minimum bias trigger in 2007

  • Upper limits on the rate of the charged kaon decay into a muon and a heavy neutral lepton (HNL) obtained from this data are reported for a range of HNL masses

  • One of the possible Standard Model (SM) extensions that allow to accommodating nonzero neutrino masses to describe neutrino oscillations is the Neutrino Minimal Standard Model [1]
