Abstract
As a followup to the latest BABAR amplitude analysis of the decay $B^+ \rightarrow K^+ K^- K^+$, we investigate the $K^+ K^-$ invariant-mass dependence of the CP asymmetry and compare it to that obtained by the LHCb collaboration. The results are based on a data sample of approximately $470 \times 10^6 B\bar{B}$ decays, collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$ factory at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.
