Title: A New Take on $\lambda$SUSY Inspired by the Diphoton Resonance
Authors: K. Santiago

ATLAS and CMS have just reported an anomaly in run 2 of the LHC. The $\gamma\gamma$ excess is studied in E6 with vector-like quarks. The $\eta$ is produced in elastic scattering and decays to two photons. Surprisingly, the conformal symmetry protects the mass of the $X(750)$, but not the Higgs. Unsurprisingly, there is much to be done.

Title: The 750 GeV Excess From SU(5)

In this note, we address the very recent diphoton peak at run 2. We scrutinize the phenomenology of left-right models and analyze deviations to Higgs couplings. Curiously, a downside of this model is that $WW$ and $ZZ$ are predicted to be huge. The $\gamma\gamma$ anomaly implies heavy scalars around 900 GeV. Our results are similar to work done by Fan and Maxin.

ATLAS and CMS have just released an excess in the 13 TeV data. The phenomenology of Georgi-Machacek models is analyzed and we predict correlations between $WW$ and $b\bar{b}$. Curiously, the $S$ couples not only to $t\bar{t}$, but also to $ZZ$. We predict a pseudo Nambu Goldstone boson below 700 GeV. Given this, our work may seem quite beautiful.

Title: Interpretations of the Diphoton Peak in Extensions of Twin Higgs

In this note, we address the intriguing diphoton resonance at run 2 (at 4.2 sigma). The $\gamma\gamma$ peak is studied in singlet-extended models with vector-like fermions. Actually, a drawback of this model is that it cannot account for the strong CP problem. Assuming the $\gamma\gamma$ anomaly is real, we predict that neutral fermions should be at 500 GeV. Our results are similar to work done by Harland-Lang and Jiang.

Title: The Diphoton Peak From the Bohr-Heisenberg Model

Comments: 2 pages

A few months ago, ATLAS and CMS have observed a resonance in run 2 of the LHC. Consequently, we study the $\gamma\gamma$ resonance in GUT models with conformal dynamics. The discrete symmetry protects the mass of the $X$. We expect a KK graviton above 300 GeV. More data should reveal the nature of the 750 GeV resonance.
