dm-crypt data recovery

Is there any way to recover data after executing this command? I did it on the wrong disk:

cryptsetup -c aes-xts-plain -y -s 512 luksFormat /dev/sda3

Thanks in advance!

No way!
I think it's irreversible.

If that didn't actually format it, then you might try the wiki page on file recovery: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/File_Recovery Helped me get files off of an ntfs partition that was accidentaly had an ext3 partition made on top of it.
