Abstract

The first observation of the chi(c1) (3872) -> J/psi mu(+)mu(-) decay is reported using proton-proton collision data recorded with the LHCb detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb(-1). The decay mode is observed for the first time, with a significance of 6.5s. Its branching fraction is measured relative to the chi(c1) (3872) -> J/psi pi(+)pi(-) decay mode B(chi(c1)(3872) -> J/psi mu(+)mu(-))/B(chi(c1)(3872) -> J/psi pi(+)pi(-)) = (1.68 +/- 0.32 +/- 0.05) x 10(-3), where the first uncertainty includes both statistical contributions and systematic contributions which are uncorrelated between data-taking periods, and the second represents the systematic contributions that are correlated between data- taking periods.
