Branching Fraction Measurements of B+ρ+γ, B0ρ0γ, and B0ωγ

Abstract
We present a study of the decays B+ρ+γ, B0ρ0γ, and B0ωγ. The analysis is based on data containing 347×106 BB¯ events recorded with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B factory. We measure the branching fractions B(B+ρ+γ)=(1.100.33+0.37±0.09)×106 and B(B0ρ0γ)=(0.790.20+0.22±0.06)×106, and set a 90% C.L. upper limit B(B0ωγ)<0.78×106. We also measure the isospin-averaged branching fraction B(B(ρ/ω)γ)=(1.250.24+0.25±0.09)×106, from which we determine |Vtd/Vts|=0.2000.020+0.021±0.015, where the first uncertainty is experimental and the second is theoretical.
