$\mathit CPT$-VIOLATION PARAMETERS

In ${{\mathit K}^{0}}-{{\overline{\mathit K}}^{0}}$ mixing, if $\mathit CP$-violating interactions include a $\mathit T$ conserving part then
 $|{{\mathit K}_{{{S}}}}\rangle{}$ = [$|{{\mathit K}_{{{1}}}}\rangle{}+(\epsilon +\delta )|{{\mathit K}_{{{2}}}}\rangle{}]/\sqrt {1+\vert \epsilon +\delta \vert ^2 }$
 $|{{\mathit K}_{{{L}}}}\rangle{}$ = [$|{{\mathit K}_{{{2}}}}\rangle{}+(\epsilon −\delta )|{{\mathit K}_{{{1}}}}\rangle{}]/\sqrt {1+\vert \epsilon −\delta \vert ^2 }$
where
 $|{{\mathit K}_{{{1}}}}\rangle{}$ = [$|{{\mathit K}^{0}}\rangle{}+|{{\overline{\mathit K}}^{0}}\rangle{}]/\sqrt {2 }$
 $|{{\mathit K}_{{{2}}}}\rangle{}$ = [$|{{\mathit K}^{0}}\rangle{}−|{{\overline{\mathit K}}^{0}}\rangle{}]/\sqrt {2 }$
and
 $|{{\overline{\mathit K}}^{0}}\rangle{}$ = $\mathit CP|{{\mathit K}^{0}}\rangle{}$.

The parameter $\delta $ specifies the $\mathit CPT$-violating part.
Estimates of $\delta $ are given below assuming the validity of the $\Delta \mathit S=\Delta \mathit Q$ rule. See also THOMSON 1995 for a test of $\mathit CPT$-symmetry conservation in ${{\mathit K}^{0}}$ decays using the Bell-Steinberger relation.

A non-zero value would violate $\mathit CPT$ invariance in decay amplitudes with $\Delta \mathit S$ ${}\not=$ $\Delta \mathit Q$. x$_{-}$, used here to define Re(x$_{-}$), and x$_{+}$, used below in the $\Delta \mathit S$ = $\Delta \mathit Q$ section are the following combinations of ${{\mathit K}_{{{e3}}}}$ decay amplitudes: x$_{\pm{}}$ = ${1\over 2}{ A( {{\overline{\mathit K}}^{0}} \rightarrow {{\mathit \pi}^{-}} {{\mathit e}^{+}} {{\mathit \nu}_{{{e}}}})\over A( {{\mathit K}^{0}} \rightarrow {{\mathit \pi}^{-}} {{\mathit e}^{+}} {{\mathit \nu}_{{{e}}}})}$ $\pm{}$ ${ A( {{\mathit K}^{0}} \rightarrow {{\mathit \pi}^{+}} {{\mathit e}^{-}} {{\overline{\mathit \nu}}_{{{e}}}}){}^{*}\over A( {{\overline{\mathit K}}^{0}} \rightarrow {{\mathit \pi}^{+}} {{\mathit e}^{-}} {{\overline{\mathit \nu}}_{{{e}}}}){}^{*}}$ .

1  AMBROSINO 2006H uses Bell-Steinberger relations with the following measurements: B( ${{\mathit K}_L^0}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \pi}^{+}}{{\mathit \pi}^{-}}$) in AMBROSINO 2006F, B( ${{\mathit K}_S^0}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \pi}^{0}}{{\mathit \pi}^{0}}{{\mathit \pi}^{0}}$) in AMBROSINO 2005B, the ${{\mathit K}_S^0}$ -semileptonic charge asymmetry in AMBROSINO 2006E, and ${{\mathit K}^{0}}$-semileptonic results in ANGELOPOULOS 1998F.
2  Uses PDG 2004 for the ${{\mathit K}_L^0}$ semileptonic charge asymmetry and Re($\delta $) from CPLEAR, ANGELOPOULOS 1998F.
3  Constrained by Bell-Steinberger (or unitarity) relation.
