Akmete, A. et al. (2022) Search for heavy neutral lepton production at the NA62 experiment. In: The European Physical Society Conference on High Energy Physics (EPS-HEP 2021, Online conference, jointly organized by Universität Hamburg and the research center DESY, 26–30 July 2021, (doi: 10.22323/1.398.0686)

Abstract

Searches for heavy neutral lepton production in K+→e+N and K+→μ+N decays using the data set collected by the NA62 experiment at CERN in 2016-18 are presented. Upper limits on the elements of the extended neutrino mixing matrix and are established at the levels of and , respectively, improving on the earlier searches for heavy neutral lepton production and decays in the kinematically accessible mass range. Searches for the K+→μ+ννν¯ and K+→μ+νX decays, where X is an new light invisible particle, are also reported.
