Results of searching for new resonances by the ATLAS collaboration
Recently the ATLAS collaboration has published the results of searching for new resonances in the decay channel into a Z, W, or Higgs boson and a photon. The Z, W, and Higgs bosons were reconstructed in the hadron decay channel. The search for the resonances was performed using the data on the proton–proton interactions at the cms energy of 13 TeV corresponding to 36.1 fb-1, which were collected during the operation of the ATLAS detector at the LHC over the period of 2016–2017.
No statistically significant deviations from the Standard Model were found. Limits were set on the cross section for the production of the resonance in the Z/W + photon channel in the mass interval of 1.0 to 6.8 TeV and for the resonance decaying into a Higgs boson and a photon in the mass intervalof 1.0 to3.0 TeV. We are glad to say that DLNP scientists also take an active part in this analysis.
