Dalitz plot slope parameters for $K\to \pi \pi \pi$ decays and two particle interference

Abstract

We study the possible distortion of phase-space in the decays $K\to \pi \pi \pi$, which may result from final state interference among the decay products. Such distortion may influence the values of slope parameters extracted from the Dalitz plot distribution of these decays. We comment on the consequences on the magnitude of violation of the $\mid \Delta I\mid =1/2$ rule in these decays.
