We study B0->rho0rho0 decays in a sample of 465*10^6 Upsilon (4S)->BBbar events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider located at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). We measure the branching fraction B = (0.92 +/- 0.32 +/- 0.14)*10^{-6} and longitudinal polarization fraction f_L = 0.75^{+0.11}_{-0.14} +/- 0.04, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The evidence for the B0->rho0rho0 signal has a significance of 3.1 standard deviations, including systematic uncertainties. We investigate the proper-time dependence of the longitudinal component in the decay and measure the CP-violating coefficients S^{00}_L = (0.3 +/- 0.7 +/- 0.2) and C^{00}_L = (0.2 +/- 0.8 +/- 0.3). We study the implication of these results for the unitarity triangle angle alpha.

    Charmless B→VV decays under SU(3)_F show 5.2σ tension for ρ,K* modes and >7σ when ϕ and ω are included, while isospin-only ρK* fits remain acceptable.
