Description

A review of present experimental status of the K -> pi nu nubar decays is given in the talk. The NA62 experiment at CERN SPS is designed to measure the branching ratio of the K+ -> pi+ nu nubar using a novel kaon decay-in-flight technique, while the KOTO experiment at JPARC aims to study the KL -> pi0 nu nubar decay. Both experiments produced new results in 2018. The NA62 experiment observed one candidate event, compatible with the Standard Model prediction. The KOTO experiment improved the existing upper limits on the branching ratio of the neutral kaon decay by an order of magnitude.
