Studies of the resonance structure in D0→K∓π±π±π∓ decays. Eur. Phys. J. C 78, 443 (2018). https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-018-5758-41434-6044http://hdl.handle.net/10347/22308Amplitude models are constructed to describe the resonance structure of D0 → K− π + π + π − and D0 → K+ π − π − π + decays using pp collision data collected at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV with the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 f b−1. The largest contributions to both decay amplitudes are found to come from axial resonances, with decay modes D0 → a1(1260) +K− and D0 → K1(1270/1400) + π − being prominent in D0 → K− π + π + π − and D0 → K+ π − π − π +, respectively. Precise measurements of the lineshape parameters and couplings of the a1(1260) +, K1(1270) − and K(1460) − resonances are made, and a quasi model-independent study of the K(1460) − resonance is performed. The coherence factor of the decays is calculated from the amplitude models to be RK3π = 0.459 ± 0.010 (stat) ± 0.012 (syst)±0.020 (model), which is consistent with direct measurements. These models will be useful in future measurements of the unitary-triangle angle γ and studies of charm mixing and CP violationeng© CERN for the benefit of the LHCb collaboration 2018.
