The analysis is conducted in the very low dielectron mass squared (q(2)) interval between 0.0008 and 0.257 GeV2, where the rate is dominated by the B-0 -> K*(0)gamma transition with a virtual photon. The fraction of longitudinal polarisation of the K*(0) meson, F-L, is measured to be F-L = (4.4 +/- 2.6 +/- 1.4){\%}, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The A(T)(Re) observable, which is related to the lepton forward-backward asymmetry, is measured to be A(T)(Re) = -0.06 +/- 0.08 +/- 0.02. The A(T)((2)) and A(T)(Im) transverse asymmetries, which are sensitive to the virtual photon polarisation, are found to be A(T)((2)) = 0.11 +/- 0.10 +/- 0.02 and A(T)(Im) = 0.02 +/- 0.10 +/- 0.01. The results are consistent with Standard Model predictions and provide the world{\textquoteright}s best constraint on the b -> s gamma photon polarisation.", optnote="WOS:000599160700001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=4642), last updated on Fri, 01 Jan 2021 11:05:53 +0000", issn="1029-8479", doi="10.1007/JHEP12(2020)081", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.06011", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP12(2020)081", language="English" }
