Abstract

We present a measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in B-0 -> K-S(0)pi(0) decays based on 383x10(6) Upsilon(4S)-> B (B) over bar events collected by the BABAR experiment at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. We measure the direct CP-violating asymmetry C-KS(0)pi(0)=0.24 +/- 0.15 +/- 0.03 and the CP-violating asymmetry in the interference between mixing and decay S-KS(0)pi(0)=0.40 +/- 0.23 +/- 0.03, where the first errors are statistical and the second are systematic. On the same sample, we measure the decay branching fraction, obtaining B(B-0 -> K-0 pi(0))=(10.3 +/- 0.7 +/- 0.6)x10(-6).
