Search for the rare decay β + → [my] + [my] - [my] + γ [my]

A search for the rare leptonic decay B+→μ+μ−μ+νμ is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $$4.7 \, {\hbox {fb}}^{-1}$$4.7fb-1collected by the LHCb experiment. The search is carried out in the region where the lowest of the two $${\mu ^+\mu ^-} $$μ+...

Description
Summary:A search for the rare leptonic decay B+→μ+μ−μ+νμ is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $$4.7 \, {\hbox {fb}}^{-1}$$4.7fb-1collected by the LHCb experiment. The search is carried out in the region where the lowest of the two $${\mu ^+\mu ^-} $$μ+μ-mass combinations is below $$980 {\mathrm {\,MeV\!/}c^2} $$980MeV/c2. The data are consistent with the background-only hypothesis and an upper limit of $$1.6 \times 10^{-8}$$1.6×10-8at 95% confidence level is set on the branching fraction in the stated kinematic region.
