Book excerpt: The authors present a preliminary measurement of CP-violation parameters in the decay B° → KK−K{sub S}°, using approximately 465 million B{bar B} events collected by the BABAR detector at SLAC. Reconstructing the neutral kaon as K{sub S}° →?+?− or K{sub S}° →?°?°, they analyze the Dalitz plot distribution and measure fractions to intermediate states. They extract CP parameters from the asymmetries in amplitudes and phases between B° and {bar B}° decays across the Dalitz plot. From a fit to the whole Dalitz plot, they measure?{sub eff} = 0.44 ± 0.07 ± 0.02, A{sub CP} = 0.03 ± 0.07 ± 0.02, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic. For decays to?K{sub S}°, they measure?{sub eff} = 0.13 ± 0.13 ± 0.02, A{sub CP} = 0.14 ± 0.19 ± 0.02. For decays to f0K{sub S}°, they measure?{sub eff} = 0.15 ± 0.13 ± 0.03, A{sub CP} = 0.01 ± 0.26 ± 0.07. From a fit to the region of the Dalitz plot with m{sub K{sup +}K−}> 1.1 GeV/c2, they measure?{sub eff} = 0.52 ± 0.08 ± 0.03, A{sub CP} = 0.05 ± 0.09 ± 0.04.
