Search for the decay K+ to pi+ gamma gamma in the pi+ momentum region P>213 MeV/c
read the original abstract
We have searched for the K+ to pi+ gamma gamma decay in the kinematic region with pi+ momentum close to the end point. No events were observed, and the 90% confidence-level upper limit on the partial branching ratio was obtained, B(K+ to pi+ gamma gamma, P>213 MeV/c) < 8.3 x 10-9 under the assumption of chiral perturbation theory including next-to-leading order ``unitarity'' corrections. The same data were used to determine an upper limit on the K+ to pi+ gamma branching ratio of 2.3 x 10-9 at the 90% confidence level.

Probing CP and flavor violation in neutral kaon decays with ALPs
The ratio of K_L to pi pi a versus K_L to pi0 a decay rates probes CP violation via flavor violation alone, with weak-interaction contributions emphasized as often neglected.
