Outline Paper Excess after Diphton Excess A Simple Model Connection with Electroweak Vacuum Stability Summary
Paper Excess after Diphton Excess
hep-ph arXiv papers (2010 - 2015) Excess Discovered!
Trend of Papers on Diphoton Excess
A Simple Model
SM + a singlet scalar + a VL fermion pair Note: Loop particles can NOT be SM particles only! S dijet search Additional decay mode of S: S Z/γ ZZ / Zγ search Z/γ
Additional Coupling with SM Higgs "Everything not forbidden is compulsory." --T.H.White (borrowed by Gell-Mann) 1. S can mix with SM Higgs! 2. S can decay to SM Higgs!
Diphoton Excess and Other Constraints R. Franceschini et al., arXiv:1512.04933 Note: Width info is NOT used! Other Constraints:
Allowed Parameter Space from LHC A. Falkowski, et al., arXiv:1502.01361 QF = 3 QF = 5
Electroweak Vacuum Stability
SM Electroweak Vacuum Stability Xing, Zhang and Zhou, 1112.3112
Can S Help Stablize EW Vacuum? Vacuum Stable Condition: Subject to constraints: RGE Running: 2-loop SM RGEs 1-loop SM RGEs + New RGEs Check Stability & Perturbativity mZ mS
Allowed Parameter Space from Stability Planck Scale: GUT Scale: NO OVERLAP! Seesaw Scale: Same as SM:
A Closer Look depending on mixing angle θ ! too large yS λS runs towards negative quickly!
More Vector-like Fermions? F1, F2, F3, ...
Deeper Thoughts & More Data are Needed! Summary The community is on fire due to diphoton excess! SM + a singlet scalar + a pair of vector-like fermion Diphoton excess & Electroweak Vacuum Stability (in our set-up) Deeper Thoughts & More Data are Needed! Stay Tuned!
