Prospects for $K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \overline{\nu}$ observation at CERN

The NA62 experiment at CERN aims at measuring the K^+ -> pi^+nunu̅decay Branching Ratio (BR) with unprecedented precision, by collecting O(100) events with ~10% background in 2 years' data-taking. In this paper the measurement strategy adopted by the NA62 collaboration is described, as well...

description The NA62 experiment at CERN aims at measuring the K^+ -> pi^+nunu̅decay Branching Ratio (BR) with unprecedented precision, by collecting O(100) events with ~10% background in 2 years' data-taking. In this paper the measurement strategy adopted by the NA62 collaboration is described, as well as all the main detectors. The trigger system, a crucial item for the experiment, will also be discussed.
