Decay rate into two pions

Following the formalism presented in section 1 we obtain the time dependent decay rates for initially pure and in , :

with . The parameter vanishes in case of conservation, i.e. :

 

In the limit of small and even smaller violation we can write:

The violating parameter is best measured through the interference term by constructing the following time dependent decay rate asymmetry:

with .
