Abstract

We present a search for the rare B-meson decay B-0 -> a(1)(+/-)rho(-/+) with a(1)(+/-)->pi(+)pi(-)pi(+/-). We use (110 +/- 1.2)x10(6) Upsilon(4S)-> B (B) over bar decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. We obtain an upper limit of 30x10(-6) (90%C.L.) for the branching fraction product B(B-0 -> a(1)(+/-)rho(-/+))B(a(1)(+/-)->pi(+)pi(-)pi(+/-)), where we assume that the a(1)(+/-) decays exclusively to rho(0)pi(+/-).
