TLDR
In this article, the authors presented a search for new resonances decaying to final states with a vector boson produced in association with a high transverse momentum photon, Vγ, with V=W(→lν)V=W (→ lν) or Z(→ l+l−)Z(→lp+lp) where l=el=e or μ.

What is the gamma gamma resonance at 750 GeV

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyse the Run 2 LHC data in terms of a new boson, extracting information on its properties and exploring theoretical interpretations, and show how compatibility between Run 1 and Run 2 data is improved by postulating the existence of an additional heavy particle, whose decays are possibly related to dark matter.

Rays of light from the LHC

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the di-photon resonance observed at ATLAS (with 3.6 fb-1) and CMS (with 2.6

A composite model for the 750 GeV diphoton excess

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present composite models explaining the diphoton excess of mass around 750 GeV recently reported by the LHC experiments, which is the largest excess observed in history.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenomenology of a 750 GeV singlet

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the available parameter space in the combined run-1 and run-2 diphoton data and study its interpretation in terms of a singlet scalar field which possibly mixes with the Standard Model Higgs boson.

The QCD Axion from Aligned Axions and Diphoton Excess

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the QCD axion can arise from many aligned axions with decay constants much smaller than the conventional axion window, and they also discuss cosmological implications of the aligned axion scenario.

- 17 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in proton-proton collisions with the ATLAS detector at the LHC is presented, which has a significance of 5.9 standard deviations, corresponding to a background fluctuation probability of 1.7×10−9.

PYTHIA 6.4 Physics and Manual

TL;DR: The Pythia program as mentioned in this paper can be used to generate high-energy-physics ''events'' (i.e. sets of outgoing particles produced in the interactions between two incoming particles).
