CKM: Charged kaons at the main injector

Conference · · Nucl.Phys.B Proc.Suppl.
The CKM experiment is a proposal to measure the branching ratio of the rare decay K{sup +} {r_arrow} {pi}{sup +} {nu}{bar {nu}} at the Main Injector at Fermilab using a decay in flight technique. The goal is to observe {approx}100 events, for a Standard Model branching ratio of 1 x 10{sup {minus}10} with a background of less than 10 events.
