Semileptonic $B^-\to f_0(1710\,,1500\,,1370) e^-\bar ν_e$ decays

We study the semileptonic decays of $B^-\to f_0(1710\,,1500\,,1370) e^-\bar ν_e$, in which the three $f_0$ states mix with glueball, $\bar s s$ and $(\bar u u+\bar d d)/\sqrt 2$ states, respectively. By averaging the mixings fitted in the literature, we find that the branching ratios of $B^-\to f_0 e^-\bar ν_e$ are $O(10^{-6})$, $O(10^{-6})$ and $O(10^{-5})$, respectively, which can be simultaneously observed in experiments at $B$ factories. The large predicted branching rate for $B^-\to f_0(1370) e^-\bar ν_e$ would provide a clean mode to directly observe the $f_0(1370)$ state.
