Abstract

In this work we have studied hadronic charmless two-body B decays involving p-wave mesons in final state. We have calculated branching ratios of BATB\to AT decays (where AA and TT denotes a 3P1^3P_1 axial-vector and a tensor meson, respectively), using BTB \to T form factors obtained in the covariant light-front (CLF) approach, and the full effective Hamiltonian. We have obtained that B(B0a1+a2)=42.47×106\mathcal{B}(B^{0} \to a_{1}^{+}a_{2}^{-}) =42.47 \times10^{-6}, B(B+a1+a20)=22.71×106\mathcal{B}(B^{+} \to a_{1}^{+}a_{2}^{0}) = 22.71 \times10^{-6}, B(Bf1K2)=(2.84)×106\mathcal{B}(B \to f_{1}K_{2}^{*}) = (2.8-4) \times 10^{-6} (with f1=,f1(1285),f1(1420)f_{1}=, f_{1}(1285),f_{1}(1420)) for θ3P1=53.2\theta_{^{3}P_{1}} = 53.2^{\circ}, B(Bf1(1420)K2)=(5.916.42)×106\mathcal{B}(B \to f_{1}(1420)K_{2}^{*}) = (5.91-6.42) \times 10^{-6} with θ3P1=27.9\theta_{^{3}P_{1}} = 27.9^{\circ}, B(BK1a2)=(1.75.7)[19.3]×106\mathcal{B}(B \to K_{1}a_{2})= (1.7 - 5.7) [1-9.3] \times10^{-6} for θK1=37[58]\theta_{K_{1}} = -37^{\circ} [-58^{\circ}] where K1=K1(1270),K1(1400)K_1 = K_1(1270), K_1(1400). It seems that these decays can be measured in experiments at BB factories. Additionally, we have found that B(BK1(1270)a2)/B(BK1(1400)a2)\mathcal{B}(B \to K_{1}(1270)a_{2})/\mathcal{B}(B \to K_{1}(1400)a_{2}) and B(Bf1(1420)K2)/B(Bf1(1285)K2)\mathcal{B}(B \to f_1(1420)K_{2}^{*})/\mathcal{B}(B \to f_1(1285)K_{2}^{*}) ratios could be useful to determine numerical values of mixing angles θK1\theta_{K_{1}} and θ3P1\theta_{^{3}P_{1}}, respectively.
