We point out that, given the current experimental status of radiative kaon decays, a subclass of the ${\cal O} (p^4)$ counterterms of the weak chiral lagrangian can be determined in closed form. This involves in a decisive way the decay…
Theoretical aspects of kaon and muon decays are reviewed. In particular, three topics on kaon and muon decays, namely $K \to \pi\nu \bar{\nu}$ processes, T violation in $K^+ \to \pi^0\mu^+ \nu$ decay and lepton flavor violation in muon…
The NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS aims to measure the branching ratio of the rare decay $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ with a relative precision of $\sim10%$. To achieve that goal, it is designed to be exposed to $1.2\times 10^{13}$ $K^+$ decays…
I review the current status of nonleptonic kaon decays, placing special emphasis on the recent theoretical progress. In particular, I concentrate on 3 points: (i) the improved determination of \epsilon_K, including both perturbative and…
