Precision tools and models to narrow in on the 750 GeV diphoton resonance

F Staub, P Athron, L Basso, MD Goodsell… - The European Physical …, 2016 - Springer
The hints for a new resonance at 750 GeV from ATLAS and CMS have triggered a significant
amount of attention. Since the simplest extensions of the standard model cannot …

Implications of a high-mass diphoton resonance for heavy quark searches

S Banerjee, D Barducci, G Bélanger… - Journal of High Energy …, 2016 - Springer
A bstract Heavy vector-like quarks coupled to a scalar S will induce a coupling of this scalar
to gluons and possibly (if electrically charged) photons. The decay of the heavy quark into …

A diphoton resonance from bulk RS

C Csaki, L Randall - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016 - Springer
A bstract Recent LHC data hinted at a 750 GeV mass resonance that decays into two
photons. A significant feature of this resonance is that its decays to any other Standard …

Learning from a Higgs-like scalar resonance

M Bauer, A Butter, J Gonzalez-Fraile, T Plehn, M Rauch - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
Motivated by a diphoton anomaly observed by ATLAS and CMS we develop an SFitter
analysis for a combined electroweak-Higgs sector, and a scalar portal at the LHC. The …

Boosted scalar confronting 750 GeV di-photon excess

Y Jiang, L Li, R Zheng - arxiv preprint arxiv:1605.01898, 2016 - arxiv.org
We consider the di-photon signal arises from two bunches of collimated photon jets emitting
from a pair of highly boosted scalars. Following the discussion of detecting the photon jets at …

Signals of Naturalness at the Large Hadron Collider

S Lombardo - 2018 - search.proquest.com
This thesis explores the hierarchy problem of the Standard Model of particle physics, its
natural solutions, and the collider and cosmological signals of such theories. A review of the …
