The $K^+\rightarrow\pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$ experiment at CERN

The P326 proposal for an experiment to measure the branching ratio of the very rare kaon decay K + → π +νν¯ at the CERN SPS is described. The proposed experiment aims to collect about 80 K + → π +νν¯ events with a 10% of background in two years of data taking. The status of the project, the R&D...

Sumario:The P326 proposal for an experiment to measure the branching ratio of the very rare kaon decay K + → π +νν¯ at the CERN SPS is described. The proposed experiment aims to collect about 80 K + → π +νν¯ events with a 10% of background in two years of data taking. The status of the project, the R&D and the future perspectives for the experiment are discussed.
