We have compared the decay rates of K L and K S to π + π − and π 0 π 0 ﬁnal states using a subset of the data from the KTeV experiment (E832) at Fermilab. We ﬁnd that the direct- CP -violation parameter Re ( ǫ ′ /ǫ ) is equal to (28 . 0 ± 3 . 0 (stat) ± 2 . 8 (syst)) × 10 − 4 . This result deﬁnitively establishes the existence of CP violation in a decay process.
