Rare radiative B decay to the orbitally excited K_2^*(1430) meson

Abstract

The exclusive rare radiative B meson decay to the orbitally excited tensor K_2^*(1430) meson is investigated in the framework of the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach in quantum field theory. The calculated branching ratio BR(B --> K_2^*(1430)γ)=(1.7\pm 0.6)\times 10^{-5} as well as the ratio BR(B --> K_2^*(1430)γ)/BR(B --> K^*(892)γ)=0.38\pm 0.08 is found in a good agreement with recent experimental data from CLEO.
