First observation of the decay $D^{0}\rightarrow K^{-}\pi^{+}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ in the $\rho^{0}$-$\omega$ region of the dimuon mass spectrum

Understand

A study of the decay $D^{0}\rightarrow K^{-}\pi^{+}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ is performed using data collected by the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.0 fb$^{-1}$.

• Decay candidates with muon pairs that have an invariant mass in the range 675--875 MeV$/c^2$ are considered.
• This region is dominated by the $\rho^{0}$ and $\omega$ resonances.
• The branching fraction in this range is measured to be ${\cal B}$($D^{0}\rightarrow K^{-}\pi^{+}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$) = $(4.17 \pm 0.12(stat) \pm 0.40(syst))\times10^{-6}$.
