Searches for lepton number violating K+ decays have been performed using the complete dataset collected by the NA62 experiment at CERN in 2016–2018. Upper limits of 5.3 10^-11 and 8.5 10^-10 are obtained on the decay branching fractions at 90% confidence level. The former result improves by a factor of four over the previous best limit, while the latter result represents the first limit on the decay rate k+ > pi- pi0 e+ e+.

Abstract

Searches for lepton number violating K+ decays have been performed using the complete dataset collected by the NA62 experiment at CERN in 2016–2018. Upper limits of 5.3 10^-11 and 8.5 10^-10 are obtained on the decay branching fractions at 90% confidence level. The former result improves by a factor of four over the previous best limit, while the latter result represents the first limit on the decay rate k+ > pi- pi0 e+ e+.
