Sumario: | Fixed target experiments are a particularly useful tool in the search of very weakly coupled particles in the MeV-GeV range, which are of interest as potential dark matter mediators. Owing to the high beam energy and a hermetic detector coverage, NA62 also has the opportunity to directly search for a variety of long-lived beyond the Standard Model particles, such as axion-like particles and dark photons. Furthermore, the large sample of K + decays available at NA62 allows a rich program for rare and forbidden decay studies. In this paper the status of these searches is reviewed, giving prospects for future data taking at NA62. |
