Here, we report a measurement of D 0 - D ¯ 0 mixing parameters and a search for indirect C P violation through a time-dependent amplitude analysis of D 0 K S 0 π + π - decays. The results are based on 921 fb - 1 of data accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e + e - collider. Assuming C P conservation, we measure the mixing parameters x = ( 0.56 ± 0.19 - 0.09 - 0.09 + 0.03 + 0.06 ) % and y = ( 0.30 ± 0.15 - 0.05 - 0.06 + 0.04 + 0.03 ) % , where the errors are statistical, experimental systematic, and systematic due to the amplitude model, respectively. Lastly, with C P violation allowed, the parameters | q / p | = 0.90 - 0.15 - 0.04 - 0.05 + 0.16 + 0.05 + 0.06 and arg ( q / p ) = ( - 6 ± 11 ± 3 - 4 + 3 ) ° are found to be consistent with conservation of C P symmetry in mixing and in the interference between mixing and decay, respectively.
