SM estimates vary within an order of magnitude (few 10few 10-6-6……

8x108x10-5-5). Models beyond SM predict substantial

enhancement partially within the reach of NA48/2.

NA48/2 method

– Two simultaneous K+ and K– beams, superimposed in space, with narrow momentum spectra;

– Detect asymmetry exclusively considering slopes of ratios of normalized U distributions;

– Equalize K+ and K– acceptances by frequently alternating polarities of relevant magnets.
