Description
The study of electroweak boson pair production is a powerful
test of the spontaneously broken gauge symmetry of the Standard Model
(SM) and can be used to search for phenomena beyond the SM. Heavy
particles decaying to gauge boson pairs are predicted by many scenarios
of new physics, including Extra Dimensions, and Technicolor models. We
present generic searches for a heavy particle decaying to a pair of
boson. The talk presents results from searches done in several gauge
bosons decay channels collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC
with sqrt(s) = 8 TeV.
