abstract
We report the first observation of the charmless vector-vector decay process B+ ->rho+ rho0. The measurement uses a 78 fb^{-1} data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric e+e- collider operating at the Upsilon(4S) resonance. We obtain a branching fraction of Br(B+ ->rho+ rho0)=(31.7+-7.1(stat.)+3.8-6.7(sys.))*10^{-6}. An analysis of the rho helicity-angle distributions gives a longitudinal polarization of Gamma_{L}/Gamma=(94.8+-10.6(stat.)+-2.1(sys.))%.

LHCb measures f_L^d = 0.600 and f_L^s = 0.159 for B to K* Kbar* decays and reports a ratio L of 4.92 that confirms 4.4 sigma discrepancy with theory.
