Diboson resonant production in non-custodial composite Higgs models

Understand

We show that the recently reported excess in resonant diboson production can be explained in the context of non-custodial composite Higgs models.

• Dibosons are generated via the s-channel exchange of massive vector bosons present in these models.
• We discuss the compatibility of the signal excess with other diboson experimental searches.
• We also discuss the tension between diboson production and other experimental tests of the model that include electroweak precision data, dilepton, dijet and top pair production and show that there is a region of parameter space in which they are all compatible with the excess.
