On the photon polarization in radiative B -> phi K gamma decay

Abstract

The photon polarization in radiative decays B -> Y gamma is known to be a subtle probe of the effective Lagrangian structure and possible New Physics effects. We discuss exclusive decay mode B -> phi K gamma where the experimentally distinct final state makes analysis especially promising. The possibility to extract information on the photon polarization out of the data entirely depends on the partial waves interference pattern in the phi K system.
