Background enhancement of $\text{CPT}$ reach at an asymmetric $\phi$ factory

Abstract

Photoproduction of neutral-kaon pairs is studied from the perspective of CP and CPT studies. Interference of the P- and S-waves, with the former due to diffractive ϕ production and the latter to f0/a0 production, is shown to enhance the CPT reach. Results are presented of Monte Carlo studies based on rates expected in future experiments.
