Abstract

An upper limit on the branching ratio for the decay K⁺ → π + νν^¯ is set at 2.4 × 10⁻⁹ at the 90\% C.L. using pions in the kinematic region 214 MeV/c < P_π < 231 MeV/c. An upper limit of 5.2 × 10⁻¹⁰ is found on the branching ratio for decays K⁺ → π⁺X⁰, where X⁰ is any massless, weakly interacting neutral particle. Limits are also set for cases where M_X⁰ > 0.
