Abstract

We present a Dalitz plot analysis of charmless B-+/- decays to the final state pi(+/-)pi(+/-)pi(-/+) using a sample of (465 +/- 5)x10(6) B(B)over bar pairs collected by the BABAR experiment at root s=10.58 GeV. We measure the branching fractions B(B-+/-->pi(+/-)pi(+/-)pi(-/+))=(15.2 +/- 0.6 +/- 1.2 +/- 0.4)x10(-6), B(B-+/-->rho(0)(770)pi(+/-))=(8.1 +/- 0.7 +/- 1.2(-1.1)(+0.4))x10(-6), B(B-+/--> f(2)(1270)pi(+/-))=(1.57 +/- 0.42 +/- 0.16(-0.19)(+0.53))x10(-6), and B(B-+/-->pi(+/-)pi(+/-)pi(-/+) nonresonant)=(5.3 +/- 0.7 +/- 0.6(-0.5)(+1.1))x10(-6), where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and model-dependent, respectively. Measurements of branching fractions for the modes B-+/-->rho(0)(1450)pi(+/-) and B-+/--> f(0)(1370)pi(+/-) are also presented. We observe no significant direct CP asymmetries for the above modes, and there is no evidence for the decays B-+/--> f(0)(980)pi(+/-), B-+/-->chi(c0)pi(+/-), or B-+/-->chi(c2)pi(+/-).
