Kaon decay interferometry as meson dynamics probes

Abstract

We discuss the time dependent interferences between $K_L$ and $K_S$ in the decays in $3π$ and $ππγ$, to be studied at interferometry machines such as the $ϕ$-factory and LEAR. We emphasize the possibilities and the advantages of using interferences, in comparison with width measurements, to obtain information both on $CP$ conserving and $CP$ violating amplitudes. Comparison with present data and suggestions for future experiments are made.
