DECAY-PLANE ASYMMETRY IN ${{\mathit \pi}^{+}}{{\mathit \pi}^{-}}{{\mathit e}^{+}}{{\mathit e}^{-}}$ DECAYS

This is the $\mathit CP$-violating asymmetry
$\mathit A$= ${\mathit N_{{\mathrm {sin\phi }}{\mathrm {cos \phi }}>0.0}−\mathit N_{{\mathrm {sin\phi }}{\mathrm {cos \phi }}<0.0}\over \mathit N_{{\mathrm {sin\phi }}{\mathrm {cos \phi }}>0.0}+\mathit N_{{\mathrm {sin\phi }}{\mathrm {cos \phi }}<0.0}}$
where $\phi $ is the angle between the ${{\mathit e}^{+}}{{\mathit e}^{-}}$ and ${{\mathit \pi}^{+}}{{\mathit \pi}^{-}}$ planes in the ${{\mathit K}_S^0}$ rest frame.

$\mathit CP$ asymmetry $\mathit A$ in ${{\mathit K}_S^0}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \pi}^{+}}{{\mathit \pi}^{-}}{{\mathit e}^{+}}{{\mathit e}^{-}}$
