Improved branching ratios were measured for the $K_L \to 3 \pi^0 $ decay in a neutral beam at the CERN SPS with the NA31 detector: $\Gamma (K_L \to 3 \pi^0) / \Gamma (K_L \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0) = 1.611 \pm 0.037$ and $\Gamma (K_L \to 3…
We discuss rare kaon decays that violate charged-lepton flavour conservation in supersymmetric theories with and without R parity, in view of possible experiments using an intense proton source as envisaged for a neutrino factory. In the…
We analyze rare kaon decays in models in which the dominant new effect is an enhanced sbar d Z vertex Z_{ds}. We point out that in spite of large theoretical uncertainties the CP-violating ratio epsilon'/epsilon provides at present the…
We investigate lepton-number-violating decays $K^\mp \rightarrow \pi^\pm l^\mp l^\mp$ in the presence of sterile neutrinos. We consider minimal interactions with Standard-Model fields through Yukawa couplings as well as higher-dimensional…
Searches for lepton number violating $K^+\to\pi^-e^+e^+$ and $K^+\to\pi^-\pi^0e^+e^+$ decays have been performed using the complete dataset collected by the NA62 experiment at CERN in 2016-2018. Upper limits of $5.3\times 10^{-11}$ and…
The search for CP-violating K_S\to3\pi^0 decay was performed with SND detector at VEPP-2M e^+e^- collider. The total amount of data corresponding to 7 million produced K_S mesons was analyzed. No candidate events were found, giving an upper…
Major progress has been made in kaon physics in the past 50 years. The number of KL->pi+pi- events has increased by 6 orders of magnitude, and the observed CP violation was experimentally proven to be caused by a complex phase in the CKM…
The KOTO experiment was designed to observe and study the K$^{0}_{L} \rightarrow$ $\pi^{0}\nu\bar{\nu}$ decay at J-PARC. The Standard Model (SM) prediction for the process is (3.0 $\pm$ 0.3) x 10$^{-11}$ with small uncertainties. This…
It is known that limits on baryon-violating nucleon decays do not, in general, imply corresponding suppression of $n - \bar n$ transitions. In the context of a model with fermions propagating in higher dimensions, we investigate a related…
We analyze in the four-generation model the first measurement of the branching ratio of rare kaon decay K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}, using the constraints from \Delta m_K, \epsilon_K, B_d-\bar{B_d} mixing, \Gamma (b\to s\gamma), B_s-\bar{B_s}…
The NA62 experiment at CERN reports a search for the lepton number violating decays $K^+\to\pi^-e^+e^+$ and $K^+\to\pi^-\mu^+\mu^+$ using a data sample collected in 2017. No signals are observed, and upper limits on the branching fractions…
The KOTO experiment is a particle physics experiment located in J-PARC, Japan, aiming to explore physics beyond the Standard Model by measuring the branching ratio of the $K_L\rightarrow\pi^{0}\nu\bar{\nu}$ decay. This decay has not yet…
Lepton number violation (LNV) can be induced by Majorana neutrinos in four-body decays of the neutral B meson and the top quark. We study the effects of Majorana neutrinos in these |\Delta L|=2 decays in an scenario where a single heavy…
We study the rare kaon decays in the framework of general SUSY models. Unlike the results in the literature, we find the contributions from the gluino exchange to the branching ratio of $K^+\to \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu}$ can reach the central…
The decay $K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu}$, with a very precisely predicted branching ratio of less than $10^{-10}$, is one of the best candidates to reveal indirect effects of new physics at the highest mass scales. The NA62 experiment at the…
Using the upper bound on the effective number of light neutrino species during primordial nucleosynthesis and the cosmological pion-pole mechanism $\gamma\gamma\rightarrow \pi^0\rightarrow \gamma X$, we obtain an upper limit on the…
Despite the observation of significant suppression of $b\to s\mu^+\mu^-$ branching ratios no clear sign of New Physics (NP) has been identified in $\Delta F=2$ observables, in particular to $\varepsilon_K$. Assuming negligible NP…
The NA48/2 and NA62-$R_K$ experiments at the CERN SPS collected large samples of charged kaon decays in flight in 2003--07. The data analysis is still on-going (with over 20 publications produced so far); the recent results from these…
We analyze the rare kaon decays $K_L \to \pi^0 \nu \bar \nu$, $K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar \nu$, $K_L \to \pi^0 e^+ e^-$ and $K_L \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ in conjunction with the CP violating ratio $\epsilon'/\epsilon$ in a general class of…
The rare kaon decay $K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar{\nu}$ is extremely sensitive to new physics, because the contribution to this decay in the Standard Model (SM) is highly suppressed and known very accurately; the branching ratio is $3\times 10^{-11}$…
