Abstract

We investigate the rare decay processes of the K mesons, KL,S -> π0 νν and K+ -> π+ νν in LR model with lepton family number being well conserved. In these processes, scalar operators (sd)(ντντ), which are derived from box diagram in LR model, play an important role due to an enhancement factor MK/ms in the matrix element <π|sd|K>. It is emphasized that the KL decay process through the scalar operator is not the CP violating mode, so the B(KL -> π0 νν) remains non-zero even in the CP conserved limit. We present the pion energy spectrum for these processes and discuss the effects of LR model.
