From a time-dependent analysis of the K+ K- K0S sample that excludes phi K0S, the values of the CP-violation parameters are S = -0.56 +/- 0.25 +/- 0.04 and C = -0.10 +/- 0.19 +/- 0.10, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic. We confirm that the final state is nearly purely CP-even. Using this result and setting C=0, we extract the Standard Model parameter sin2beta = 0.57 +/- 0.26 +/- 0.04 +0.17/-0 where the last error is due to uncertainty on the CP content. We present the first measurement of the CP-violating charge asymmetry ACP(B+ --> K+K0S K0S) = -0.04 +/- 0.11 +/- 0.02, with a 90% confidence-level interval of [-0.23, 0.15]. The branching fractions are BF(B0 --> K+K-K0) = (23.8 +/- 2.0 +/- 1.6) x 10^{-6} and BF(B+ --> K+K0S K0S) = (10.7 +/- 1.2 +/- 1.0) x 10^{-6}.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-06-01T17:51:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.30.Er", "12.15.Hh", "13.25.Hw" ], "keywords": [ "branching fractions", "cp asymmetries", "k0s k0s", "standard model parameter sin2beta", "excludes phi k0s" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
