Abstract

A method was proposed to measure the photon polarization in radiative B decays into kaon resonance states decaying to Kππ, which can test the standard model (SM). The photon polarization is measured by the up-down asymmetry of the photon direction relative to the Kππ decay plane. The results showed that integrated asymmetry in K1(1400) → Kππ is measurable at currently operating B factories.
