The decay K_L -> pi0 e+ e- is being searched for as a signal of direct Delta S = 1 CP violation. We provide a thorough updating of the analysis of the three components of the decay: 1) Direct CP violation, 2) CP violation through the mass…
We relate the asymmetries in the charged pions energy in the decay into $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ of $K_L$ and of the tagged neutral kaons. The former asymmetry is a given combination of $\Re(\epsilon)$, $\Im(\epsilon)$, and $|\epsilon'|$.…
Using 232 fb-1 of e+e- collision data recorded by the BaBar experiment, we measure the ratios of three-body Cabibbo-suppressed decay rates of the D^0 meson relative to that of the Cabibbo-favored decay: B(D0 --> pi- pi+ pi0)/ B(D0 --> K-…
