Abstract

By analyzing 7.93 fb-1 of e+e- collision data collected at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII collider, we report the observation of the semimuonic decays of D+→K̄1(1270)0μ+νμ and D0→K1(1270)-μ+νμ with statistical significances of 12.5σ and 6.0σ, respectively. Their decay branching fractions are determined to be B[D+→K̄1(1270)0μ+νμ]=(2.36±0.20-0.27+0.18±0.48)×10-3 and B[D0→K1(1270)-μ+νμ]=(0.78±0.11-0.09+0.05±0.15)×10-3, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively, and the third originates from the input branching fraction of K̄1(1270)0→K-π+π0 or K1(1270)-→K-π+π-. Combining our branching fractions with the previous measurements of B[D+→K̄1(1270)0e+νe] and B[D0→K1(1270)-e+νe], we determine the branching fraction ratios to be B[D+→K̄1(1270)0μ+νμ]/B[D+→K̄1(1270)0e+νe]=1.03±0.14-0.15+0.11 and B[D0→K1(1270)-μ+νμ]/B[D0→K1(1270)-e+νe]=0.74±0.13-0.13+0.08. Using the branching fractions measured in this work and the world-average lifetimes of the D+ and D0 mesons, we determine the semimuonic partial decay width ratio to be Γ[D+→K̄1(1270)0μ+νμ]/Γ[D0→K1(1270)-μ+νμ]=1.22±0.10-0.09+0.06, which is consistent with unity as predicted by isospin conservation.
