Abstract: (arXiv)

An upper limit on the branching ratio for the decay

K^+ \! \rightarrow \! \pi^+ \nu \overline{\nu}

is set at

2.4 \times 10^{-9}

at the 90\% C.L. using pions in the kinematic region

214~{\rm MeV}/c < P_\pi < 231~{\rm MeV}/c

. An upper limit of

5.2 \times 10^{-10}

is found on the branching ratio for decays

K^+ \! \rightarrow \! \pi^+ X^0

, where

X^0

is any massless, weakly interacting neutral particle. Limits are also set for cases where

M_{X^0}>0

.
