Experiment E949 at Brookhaven National Laboratory has observed three new events consistent with the decay K+ => pi+,nu,nubar in the pion momentum region 140 < P_pi < 199 MeV/c in an exposure of 1.71e12 stopped kaons with an estimated total background of 0.93+-0.17(stat.)+0.32-0.24(syst.) events. This brings the total number of observed K+ => pi+,nu,nubar events to seven. Combining this observation with previous results, assuming the pion spectrum predicted by the standard model, results in a branching ratio of (1.73+1.15-1.05)e-10. An interpretation of the results for alternative models of the decay K^ => pi+,nothing is also presented.

51 - E787 collaboration 2000
A search for additional evidence for the rare kaon decay K^+ --> pi^+ nu nubar has been made with a new data set comparable in sensitivity to the previous exposure that produced a single event.
The first search for the decay K^+ -> pi^+ pi^0 nu nubar has been performed with the E787 detector at BNL. Based on zero events observed in the kinematical search region defined by 90 MeV/c < P_{pi^+} < 188 MeV/c and 135 MeV < E_{pi^0} < 180 MeV, an upper limit B(K^+ -> pi^+ pi^0 nu nubar) < 4.3 x 10^{-5} at 90% confidence level is established.

The results and goals of experiments E787, E949, CKM and KOPIO on the measurement of the branching fractions of K+ -> pi+,nu,nubar and K0L -> pi0,nu,nubar are presented.
214 - E949 Collaboration 2008
Three events for the decay K+ => pi+,nu,nubar have been observed in the pion momentum region below the K+ => pi+,pi0 peak, 140 < P_pi < 199 MeV/c, with an estimated background of 0.93+-0.17(stat.)+0.32-0.24(syst.) events. Combining this observation with previously reported results yields a branching ratio of B(K+ => pi+,nu,nubar) = (1.73+1.15-1.05)e-10 consistent with the standard model prediction.
69 - E787 Collaboration 2004
We report the results of a search for the decay $K^+ to pi^+ u bar u$ in the kinematic region with $pi^+$ momentum $140 < P < 195$ MeV/c using the data collected by the E787 experiment at BNL. No events were observed. When combined with our previous search in this region, one candidate event with an expected background of $1.22 pm 0.24$ events results in a 90% C.L. upper limit of $2.2 times 10^{-9}$ on the branching ratio of $K^+ to pi^+ u bar u$. We also report improved limits on the rates of $K^+ to pi^+ X^0$ and $K^+ to pi^+ X^1 X^2$ where $X^0, X^1, X^2$ are hypothetical, massless, long-lived neutral particles.
