Description
We present a possible interpretation of the excess in the di-photon channel
at 750 GeV recently observed by ATLAS and CMS as the radion of the five-dimensional
Randall-Sundrum model. We show that the Higgs-radion scenario can give a cross section
of (5--15) fb in the di-photon final state at 750 GeV while at the same time giving a very SM-like state at 125 GeV. Tests of the model using other final states will be discussed. Theoretical implications of this di-photon explanation are also considered.
