POLARIZATION IN ${{\mathit B}^{+}}$ DECAY

In decays involving two vector mesons, one can distinguish among the states in which meson polarizations are both longitudinal ($\mathit L$) or both are transverse and parallel ($\parallel$) or perpendicular ($\perp$) to each other with the parameters $\Gamma _{L}/\Gamma $, $\Gamma _{\perp}/\Gamma $, and the relative phases $\phi _{\parallel}$ and $\phi _{\perp}$. See the definitions in the note on “Polarization in ${{\mathit B}}$ Decays” review in the ${{\mathit B}^{0}}$ Particle Listings.

$\Gamma _{L}/\Gamma $ in ${{\mathit B}^{+}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \mu}^{+}}{{\mathit \mu}^{-}}{{\mathit K}^{*}{(892)}^{+}}$ (14.18 $<$ q${}^{2}<$ 19.0 GeV${}^{2}$/c${}^{4}$)
