Search for heavy neutrinos at CERN SPS

Abstract

The phenomenology in the neutrino sector requires physics beyond the Standard Model. One possibility is the existence of new massive leptonic states which could be probed at the high intensity machines. The present results on heavy neutral leptons from the study of kaon decays in flight with the NA48/2 and NA62 experiments are presented and the future prospects for such searches at CERN SPS are discussed.Comment: Talk presented at NuPhys2018 (London, 19-21 December 2018). 8 pages, 6 figure
