Description

Many extensions to the Standard Model predict new particles decaying into two bosons. Searches for diboson resonances (WW, WZ, ZZ, WH, ZH, and HH) have been performed in final states with different numbers of leptons and using new identification techniques to disentangle the decay products in highly boosted hadronic topologies. This talk summarizes the set of such searches carried out by the ATLAS collaboration with LHC Run 2 data.
