A bstract A measurement of the $$ {K}^{+}\to {\pi}^{+}\nu \overline{\nu} $$ K + → π + ν ν ¯ decay by the NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS is presented, using data collected in 2021 and 2022. This dataset was recorded, after modifications to the beamline and detectors, at a higher instantaneous beam intensity with respect to the 2016–2018 data taking. Combining NA62 data collected in 2016–2022, a measurement of $$ \mathcal{B}\left({K}^{+}\to {\pi}^{+}\nu \overline{\nu}\right)=\left({13.0}_{-3.0}^{+3.3}\right)\times {10}^{-11} $$ B K + → π + ν ν ¯ = 13.0 − 3.0 + 3.3 × 10 − 11 is reported. With 51 signal candidates observed and an expected background of $$ {18}_{-2}^{+3} $$ 18 − 2 + 3 events, $$ \mathcal{B}\left({K}^{+}\to {\pi}^{+}\nu \overline{\nu}\right) $$ B K + → π + ν ν ¯ becomes the smallest branching ratio measured with a signal significance above 5 σ .
