Abstract

We present a measurement of the branching fraction and fraction of longitudinal polarization of B0→ρ+ρ- decays, which have two π0's in the final state. We also measure time-dependent CP violation parameters for decays into longitudinally polarized ρ+ρ- pairs. This analysis is based on a data sample containing (387±6)×106 ϒ(4S) mesons collected with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider in 2019-2022. We obtain B(B0→ρ+ρ-)=(2.89-0.22+0.23 -0.27+0.29)×10-5, fL=0.921-0.025+0.024 -0.015+0.017, S=-0.26±0.19±0.08, and C=-0.02±0.12-0.05+0.06, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. We use these results to perform an isospin analysis to constrain the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle φ2 and obtain two solutions; the result consistent with other Standard Model constraints is φ2=(92.6-4.7+4.5)°.
