Using [Formula presented] of data collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy [Formula presented] Factory, we obtain a value [Formula presented] , which, in the limit of [Formula presented] conservation, corresponds to the mixing parameter [Formula presented] . Using the difference in lifetimes of [Formula presented] and [Formula presented] mesons, we obtain the [Formula presented]-violation parameter [Formula presented] . © 2003 The American Physical Society.
