Kinematic properties and charges of the four muons selected in data in the signal region for the measurement of the YY production cross section. MUON1 and MUON2 form the dimuon pair associated to the dimuon object required at trigger-level. The invariant mass of both muon pairs is between 8.6 and 11 GeV.
