A broad peaking structure is observed in the dimuon spectrum of $B^+ to K^+ mu^+mu^-$ decays in the kinematic region where the kaon has a low recoil against the dimuon system. The structure is consistent with interference between the $B^+ to K^+ mu^+mu^-$ decay and a resonance and has a statistical significance exceeding six standard deviations. The mean and width of the resonance are measured to be $4191^{+9}_{-8}mathrm{,Mekern -0.1em V/}c^2$ and $65^{+22}_{-16}mathrm{,Mekern -0.1em V/}c^2$, respectively, where the uncertainties include statistical and systematic contributions. These measurements are compatible with the properties of the $psi(4160)$ meson. First observations of both the decay $B^+ to psi(4160) K^+$ and the subsequent decay $psi(4160) to mu^+mu^-$ are reported. The resonant decay and the interference contribution make up 20,% of the yield in the low recoil region, which is larger than theoretical estimates.

A search is performed for the lepton number violating decay $B^{+}to h^- mu^+ mu^+$, where $h^-$ represents a $K^-$ or a $pi^-$, using data from the LHCb detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $36pb^{-1}$. The decay is forbidden in the
Standard Model but allowed in models with a Majorana neutrino. No signal is observed in either channel and limits of $B(B^{+} to K^- mu^+ mu^+) < 5.4times 10^{-8}$ and $B(B^{+} to pi^- mu^+ mu^+) < 5.8times 10^{-8}$ are set at the 95% confidence level. These improve the previous best limits by factors of 40 and 30, respectively.
The isospin asymmetries of $B to K^{(*)}mu^+mu^-$ decays and the partial branching fractions of $B^0 to K^0mu^+mu^-$ and $B^+ to K^{*+}mu^+mu^-$ are measured as a function of the di-muon mass squared $q^2$ using an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-
1}$ collected with the LHCb detector. The $B to Kmu^+mu^-$ isospin asymmetry integrated over $q^2$ is negative, deviating from zero with over 4 $sigma$ significance. The $B to K^{*}mu^+mu^-$ decay measurements are consistent with the Standard Model prediction of negligible isospin asymmetry. The observation of the decay $B^0 to K^0_{rmscriptscriptstyle S}mu^+mu^-$ is reported with 5.7 $sigma$ significance. Assuming that the branching fraction of $B^0 to K^0mu^+mu^-$ is twice that of $B^0 to K^0_{rmscriptscriptstyle S}mu^+mu^-$, the branching fractions of $B^0 to K^0mu^+mu^-$ and $B to K^{*+}mu^+mu^-$ are found to be ($0.31^{+0.07}_{-0.06}) times 10^{-6}$ and ($1.16pm0.19) times 10^{-6}$, respectively.
The first observation of the $D^0 to pi^+pi^-mu^+mu^-$ and $D^0 to K^+K^-mu^+mu^-$ decays is reported using a sample of proton-proton collisions collected by LHCb at a center-of-mass energy of 8$,$TeV, and corresponding to 2$,$fb$^{-1}$ of integrated
luminosity. The corresponding branching fractions are measured using as normalization the decay $D^0 to K^- pi^+[mu^+mu^-]_{rho^0/omega}$, where the two muons are consistent with coming from the decay of a $rho^0$ or $omega$ meson. The results are $mathcal{B}(D^0 to pi^+pi^-mu^+mu^-)=(9.64pm0.48pm0.51pm0.97)times10^{-7}$ and $mathcal{B}(D^0 to K^+K^-mu^+mu^-)=( 1.54pm0.27pm0.09pm0.16)times10^{-7}$, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and due to the limited knowledge of the normalization branching fraction. The dependence of the branching fraction on the dimuon mass is also investigated.
First observations of the rare decays $B^+rightarrow K^+pi^+pi^-mu^+mu^-$ and $B^+rightarrow phi K^+mu^+mu^-$ are presented using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.0,{fb}^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass en
ergies of $7$ and $8mathrm{,TeV}$. The branching fractions of the decays are begin{eqnarray*} mathcal{B}(B^+rightarrow K^+pi^+pi^-mu^+mu^-) &=& (4.36,^{+0.29}_{-0.27},mathrm{(stat)}pm 0.21,mathrm{(syst)}pm0.18,mathrm{(norm)})times10^{-7}, mathcal{B}(B^+rightarrowphi K^+mu^+mu^-) &=& (0.82 ,^{+0.19}_{-0.17},mathrm{(stat)},^{+0.10}_{-0.04},mathrm{(syst)}pm0.27,mathrm{(norm)}) times10^{-7},end{eqnarray*} where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and due to the uncertainty on the branching fractions of the normalisation modes. A measurement of the differential branching fraction in bins of the invariant mass squared of the dimuon system is also presented for the decay $B^+rightarrow K^+pi^+pi^-mu^{+}mu^{-}$.
The angular distributions of the rare decays $B^+ to K^+mu^+mu^-$ and $B^0 to K^0_{rmscriptscriptstyle S}mu^+mu^-$ are studied with data corresponding to 3$~$fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity, collected in proton-proton collisions at 7 and 8$~$TeV c
entre-of-mass energies with the LHCb detector. The angular distribution is described by two parameters, $F_{rm H}$ and the forward-backward asymmetry of the dimuon system $A_{rm FB}$, which are determined in bins of the dimuon mass squared. The parameter $F_{rm H}$ is a measure of the contribution from (pseudo)scalar and tensor amplitudes to the decay width. The measurements of $A_{rm FB}$ and $F_{rm H}$ reported here are the most precise to date and are compatible with predictions from the Standard Model.
