The results on K --> 2pi amplitudes at O(p^6), including the value for epsilon'/epsilon, are compared with experiment to fix phenomenological B-factors for mesonic matrix elements of nonpenguin and penguin four-quark operators. The dependence of these B-factors on different theoretical uncertainties and experimental errors of various input parameters is investigated. Finally, we present our estimates at O(p^6) for the CP asymmetry of linear slope parameters in the K+- --> 3pi Dalitz plot.Reference addedHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyWhat we have learned from direct CP violation studies in kaon decaystext
