Description

The B decays to omega omega, and omega phi decays are related to B -> phi K* via an SU(3) rotation. The study of these yet unseen decay modes can therefore provide information regarding the unexpectedly small value of the longitudinal spin component (f_L) measured in B -> phi K* decays. We present the results of a new search for these decay modes, as well as other charmless B decays, performed using about 470M B-Bbar events recorded by the BaBar detector.
