CHARGE ASYMMETRY IN ${{\mathit K}_{{{\ell3}}}^{0}}$ DECAYS

Such asymmetry violates $\mathit CP$. It is related to Re($\epsilon $).

$\mathit A_{\mathit L}({{\mathit \mu}}$) = $\lbrack{}\Gamma\mathrm {({{\mathit \pi}^{-}} {{\mathit \mu}^{+}} {{\mathit \nu}_{{{\mu}}}})}$ $−$ $\Gamma\mathrm {({{\mathit \pi}^{+}} {{\mathit \mu}^{-}} {{\overline{\mathit \nu}}_{{{\mu}}}})}$]/SUM
