Kaon physics is at a turning point -- while the rare-kaon experiments NA62
and KOTO are in full swing, the end of their lifetime is approaching and the
future experimental landscape needs to be defined. With HIKE, KOTO-II and
LHCb-Phase-II on the table and under scrutiny, it is a very good moment in time
to take stock and contemplate about the opportunities these experiments and

Search for lepton number and flavour violation in K+ and pi0 decays
The NA62 experiment at CERN collected a large sample of charged kaon decays into final states with multiple charged particles in 2016-2018. This sample provides sensitivities to rare decays with branching ratios as low as 10 −11 . Searches for the lepton number violating K + → π − µ + e+ decay and the lepton flavour violating K + → π + µ − e + and π 0 → µ − e + decays are reported. No evidence for these decays is found and upper limits of the branching ratios are obtained at 90% confidence level. These results improve by one order of magnitude over previous results for these decay modes
New measurement of the radiative decay Ke3g at the NA62 experiment at CERN
The NA62 experiment at CERN reports new results from the study of the radiative kaon decay K+→π0e+νγ
(Ke3γ
), using a data sample recorded in 2017 and 2018. Preliminary results with the most precise measurement of the Ke3γ
branching ratio, and a T-asymmetry measurement in the Ke3γ
decay, are presented
Effects of Aerobic Exercise Training on Daily Psychological Processes in Family Caregivers: Secondary Analyses of a Randomized Controlled Trial
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of a 24-week aerobic exercise training program on daily psychological processes and occurrence of stressors in a group of previously physically underactive family caregivers of patients with dementia. As part of the Fitness, Aging, and STress (FAST) randomized controlled trial, 68 participants (F = 55; M = 13) were randomized to either a staff-supported, 24-week aerobic training (N = 34) program or waitlist control (N = 34) group. Approximately 2 weeks prior to randomization, ecological momentary assessments were completed 6 times per day for 7 days and again in the 24th week of the trial to assess exposure to levels of momentary positive affect, negative affect, rumination, control, and the occurrence of stressors throughout the day. These secondary analyses with data from 56 of the participants revealed that the intervention group showed a significantly larger increase in daily positive affect and perceptions of control compared to control participants over the course of the intervention. A treatment effect was also found for negative affect and rumination, whereby both decreased to a greater extent in the intervention group when compared with participants in the control condition. The 24-week aerobic training program had significant impacts on daily psychological processes in family caregivers, deepening our understanding of the robust effects of exercise on mental health
Thigh-length compression stockings and DVT after stroke
Controversy exists as to whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy improves survival in patients with invasive bladder cancer, despite randomised controlled trials of more than 3000 patients. We undertook a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the effect of such treatment on survival in patients with this disease
