Description

Many new physics models predict the existence of Higgs-like particles decaying into two bosons (W, Z, photon, or Higgs bosons) making these important signatures in the search for new physics. Searches for spin-0 diboson resonances have been performed in final states with different numbers of leptons, photons, as well as jets and b-jets where new jet substructure techniques are used to disentangle the hadronic decay products in highly boosted configuration. This talk summarises recent ATLAS searches with Run 2 data collected at the LHC and explains the experimental methods used, including vector- and Higgs-boson-tagging techniques.
