Length and multiplicity of the local cohomology with support in a hyperplane arrangement

Let $R$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables with coefficients in a field $K$ of characteristic zero. Let $D_n$ be the $n$-th Weyl algebra over $K$. Suppose that $f \in R$ defines a hyperplane arrangement in the affine space $K^n$. Then the length and the multiplicity of the 1st local cohomology group $H^1_{(f)}(R)$ as left $D_n$-module coincide and are explicitly expressed in terms of the Poincar\'e polynomial or the M\"obius function of the arrangement.
