AI总结:

KOTO II实验旨在J-PARC测量$K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$分支比,灵敏度达$8.5\times10^{-13}$,远低于标准模型预测,可搜索新物理并首次以超$5\sigma$显著性发现该衰变,同时扩展至其他稀有衰变和暗物质粒子搜索。

摘要:

KOTO II实验旨在J-PARC测量衰变$K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$的分支比。通过一条从生产靶5度角提取长寿命中性Kaon的束流线,该衰变的单事件灵敏度为$8.5\times 10^{-13}$,远小于标准模型预测值$3\times 10^{-11}$。这使得能够搜索标准模型之外的新物理,并首次以超过$5\sigma$的显著性发现该衰变。作为世界上唯一专门研究稀有Kaon衰变的拟议实验,KOTO II在寻求完整理解夸克扇区味动力学方面不可或缺。此外,通过结合全球Kaon研究群体的努力,我们计划进一步开发KOTO II探测器,并将实验的物理范围扩展到包括测量$K_L\to\pi^0\ell^+\ell^-$衰变的分支比、研究其他$K_L$衰变,以及搜索暗光子、轴子和类轴子粒子。因此,KOTO II将获得对$K_L$衰变的全面理解,为现有的$K^+$结果提供对新物理情景的进一步约束。

英文摘要:

The KOTO II experiment is proposed to measure the branching ratio of the decay $K_L\toπ^0ν\barν$ at J-PARC. With a beamline to extract long-lived neutral kaons at 5 degrees from a production target, the single event sensitivity of the decay is $8.5\times 10^{-13}$, which is much smaller than the Standard Model prediction $3\times 10^{-11}$. This allows searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model and the first discovery of the decay with a significance exceeding $5σ$. As the only experiment proposed in the world dedicated to rare kaon decays, KOTO II will be indispensable in the quest for a complete understanding of flavor dynamics in the quark sector. Moreover, by combining efforts from the kaon community worldwide, we plan to develop the KOTO II detector further and expand the physics reach of the experiment to include measurements of the branching ratio of the $K_L\toπ^0\ell^+\ell^-$ decays, studies of other $K_L$ decays, and searches for dark photons, axions, and axion-like particles. KOTO II will therefore obtain a comprehensive understanding of $K_L$ decays, providing further constraints on new physics scenarios with existing $K^+$ results.
