Abstract
We describe a measurement of the direct asymmetry between inclusive and decays. This asymmetry is expected to be less than 0.01 in the standard model, but could be enhanced up to about 0.10 by new physics contributions. We use a sample of pairs recorded with the BABAR detector at SLAC PEP-II, from which we reconstruct a set of 12 exclusive final states containing one charged or neutral kaon and one to three pions. We measure an asymmetry of , corresponding to an allowed range of at confidence level.
