$T$-violation and $CPT$-invariance measurements in the CPLEAR experiment: a detailed description of the analysis of neutral-kaon decays to $e\pi\nu$

A detailed description of the analysis of neutral kaons decaying to \pen\ is given, based on the complete set of data collected with the CPLEAR experiment. Using a novel approach involving initially strangeness-tagged \kn\ and \knb , time-dependent decay-rate asymmetries were measured. These asymmet...

Descripción
Sumario:A detailed description of the analysis of neutral kaons decaying to \pen\ is given, based on the complete set of data collected with the CPLEAR experiment. Using a novel approach involving initially strangeness-tagged \kn\ and \knb , time-dependent decay-rate asymmetries were measured. These asymmetries enabled \Tz - and \CPTz -violation parameters to be measured in the context of a systematic study. The highlights of this study are the first direct observation of \Tz\ violation and the direct determination of the \CPTz\ parameter \red\ with an accuracy improved by two orders of magnitude with respect to the current value.
