Abstract

We summarize and combine the known information on the decay rates of the strangeness-one axial vector mesons, Q 1 and Q 2. From this information and the rate for B→ωπ, we determine the Q A−Q B mixing angle and the S-wave, symmetric and antisymmetric octet couplings for vector-pseudoscalar decays of axial vector mesons. If we assume the D(1285) and the E(1420) belong to the J PC =1 ++ nonet, we find the A 1 to have a mass of ∼1.47 GeV and a large (>0.3 GeV) width.
