Description
$K^+\to\pi^+\ell^+\ell^-$ is a highly suppressed decay mode in the Standard Model, and is therefore expected to be sensitive to new physics. In this talk, we present the first lattice calculation of the long-distance electromagnetic form factor $V$ at physical light-quark masses for this decay. Our calculation features an explicit GIM subtraction, with dynamical zMöbius quarks and Möbius domain-wall fermion sea-quarks. In order to improve upon the obtained result, we identify the particular challenges to overcome on the road towards a competitive physical-point lattice calculation and suggest routes forward.
