Abstract

We present a measurement of the branching fraction of the decay B^0→a_1^±(1260)π^∓ with a_1^±(1260)→π^∓π^±π^±. The data sample corresponds to 218×10^6 BB pairs produced in e^+e^- annihilation through the Υ(4S) resonance. We measure the branching fraction B(B^0→a_1^±(1260)π^∓)B(a_1^±(1260)→π^∓π^±π^±)=(16.6±1.9±1.5)×10^(-6), where the first error quoted is statistical and the second is systematic.
