- Lazzeroni played a leading role in the design and construction of NA62, in particular its kaon tagging detector. This detector is absolutely essential for the success of the experiment and its ability to perform the measurement of K+ to pi+ nunu, since the incoming hadron beam is only 6% kaons. The kaon tagging system exceeds the design specifications and reaches a remarkable time resolution of 70 ps. Lazzeroni was also spokesperson of the experiment (i.e. the international PI) for the final stages of the analysis and preparation of the paper.
