Description

The features of the NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS – high-intensity setup, trigger-system flexibility, high-frequency tracking of beam particles, redundant particle identification, and ultra-high-efficiency photon vetoes – make NA62 particularly suitable to search for long-lived, weakly-coupled particles within Beyond the Standard Model physics, using kaon and pion decays as well as operating the experiment in dump mode. The latest results and the NA62 sensitivity for production and decay searches of Dark Photons, Heavy Neutral Lepton and Axion-Like Particles will be presented, together with prospects for future data taking at the NA62 experiment.
