abstract
We report the first observation of $e^+e^- \to \rho^+\rho^-$, in a data sample of 379 $fb^{-1}$ collected with the BABAR detector at the {PEP-II} $e^+e^-$ storage ring at center-of-mass energies near $\sqrt{s} = 10.58 GeV. We measure a cross section of $\sigma({e^+e^-\} \to \rho^+ \rho^-) = {19.5 \pm 1.6(stat) \pm 3.2(syst) fb}$. Assuming production through single-photon annihilation, there are three independent helicity amplitudes. We measure the ratios of their squared moduli to be $|{F}_{00}|^2 : |{F}_{10}|^2 : |{F}_{11}|^2 = 0.51 \pm 0.14(stat) \pm 0.07(syst) : 0.10 \pm 0.04(stat) \pm 0.01(syst) : 0.04 \pm 0.03(stat) \pm 0.01(syst)$. The $|{F}_{00}|^2$ result is inconsistent with the prediction of 1.0 made by QCD models with a significance of 3.1 standard deviations including systematic uncertainties.

Next-to-leading-order time-like rho electromagnetic form factors in ${k_{\rm T}}$ factorization
The NLO time-like rho meson electromagnetic form factors are obtained by analytic continuation of space-like NLO results, with twist-3 contributions dominating and predictions consistent with BABAR.
