An expected hierarchy of amplitudes in the absence of rescattering will be violated by rescattering corrections. Such violations could point the way toward channels in which final-state interactions could be important. Cases in which final state phases can lead to large CP asymmetries are pointed out.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1997-01-28T13:10:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "meson decays", "rescattering", "annihilation", "final state phases", "large cp asymmetries" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
