Intro: misc. on the excess

Both of ATLAS and CMS reported the bump around 750GeV.

The diphoton channel would look clean, then reliable(!?).

In terms of signal strength:

1 Introduction

Very recently, both of the ATLAS and CMS experiments announced the observation of a newresonance around 750GeV as a bump in the diphoton invariant mass spectrum from the run-II datain

ps = 13TeV [1, 2]. Their results are based on the accumulated data of 3.2 fb�1 (ATLAS) and

2.6 fb�1 (CMS), and local/global significances are 3.9�/2.3� (ATLAS) and 2.6�/ . 1.2� (CMS),respectively. The best-fit values of the invariant mass are 750GeV by ATLAS and 760GeV byCMS, where the ATLAS also reported the best-fit value of the total width as 45GeV. After theadvent of the announcement, various ways for explaining the 750GeV excess have been proposedin Refs. [3–120]. An interpretation of the excess in terms of the signal strength of a scalar (or apseudoscalar) resonance S, pp ! S + X ! �� + X, was done in Ref. [9] based on the expectedand observed exclusion limits. The authors claimed,

µATLAS

13TeV

= �(pp ! S +X)13TeV

⇥ B(S ! ��) = (6.2+2.4�2.0) fb, (1.1)

µCMS

13TeV

= �(pp ! S +X)13TeV

⇥ B(S ! ��) = (5.6± 2.4) fb, (1.2)

with a Poissonian likelihood function (for the ATLAS measurement) and the Gaussian approxi-mation (for the CMS measurement), respectively.

On the other hand, both of the ATLAS and CMS groups reported that no significant excessover the standard model (SM) background was observed in their analyses based on the run-I dataat

ps = 8TeV [121, 122], while a mild upward bump was found in their data around 750GeV. In

Ref. [9], the signal strengths atps = 8TeV were extracted by use of the corresponding expected

and observed exclusion limits given by the experiments, in the Gaussian approximation, as

µATLAS

8TeV

= �(pp ! S +X)8TeV

⇥ B(S ! ��) = (0.46± 0.85) fb, (1.3)

µCMS

8TeV

= �(pp ! S +X)8TeV

⇥ B(S ! ��) = (0.63± 0.25) fb. (1.4)

It is mentioned that when we upgrade the collider energy from 8TeV to 13TeV, a factor 4.7enhancement is expected [9, 123], when the resonant particle is produced via gluon fusion, andthen the data at

ps = 8TeV and 13TeV are compatible at around 2� confidence level (C.L.).

These observations would give us a stimulating hint for surveying the structure of physics beyondthe SM above the electroweak scale even though the accumulated amount of the data would notbe enough for detailed discussions and the errors are large at the present stage.

A key point to understand the resonance is the fact that no bump around 750GeV has beenfound in the other final states in both of the 8TeV and 13TeV data. If B(S ! ��) is the same asthe 750GeV Higgs one, B(h ! ��)|

750GeVSM

= 1.79⇥10�7 [124], we can immediately recognize thatsuch a possibility is inconsistent with the observed results, e.g., in ZZ final state, at

ps = 8TeV,

where the experimental 95% C.L. limits on the ZZ channel are 22 fb by ATLAS [125], 27 fb byCMS [126], and the branching ratio B(h ! ZZ)|

750GeVSM

= 0.290 [124]. In general, the processS ! �� should be loop induced since S has zero electromagnetic charge and then the value ofB(S ! ��) tends to be suppressed because tree level decay branches generate primary componentsof the total width of S. Then, a reasonable setup for explaining the resonance consistently is thatall of the decay channels of S are one loop induced, where S would be a gauge singlet underSU(3)C and SU(2)L since a non-singlet gauge assignment leads to a tree level gauge interaction.

An example of this direction is that S is a singlet scalar and it couples to vector-like quarks,which contribute to both of pp ! S + X and S ! �� via gluon fusion and photon fusion,respectively. In such a possibility, a typical digit of B(S ! ��) is ⇠ 1%. On the other hand,when B(S ! ��) is O(10)%, another direction for generating S at the one loop level opens up

Figure 1: Invariant mass distribution of the selected diphoton events. Residual number of events with respect to thefit result are shown in the bottom pane. The first two bins in the lower pane are outside the vertical plot range.

The events in this region are scrutinized. No detector or reconstruction e�ect that could explain the largerrate is found, nor any indication of anomalous background contamination. The kinematic properties ofthese events are studied with respect to those of events populating the invariant mass regions above andbelow the excess, and no significant di�erence is observed.

The Run-1 analysis presented in Ref. [13] is extended to invariant masses larger than 600 GeV by using thenew background modeling techniques presented in this note (cf. Section 7). The compatibility betweenthe results obtained with the 8 TeV and 13 TeV datasets is estimated under the NWA hypothesis andassuming a large-width resonance with ↵ = 6%, using the best fit value of the ratio of cross sections. Foran s-channel gluon-initiated process, the parton-luminosity ratio is expected to be 4.7 [43]. Under thoseassumptions, the results obtained with the two datasets are found to be compatible within 2.2 and 1.4standard deviations for the two width hypotheses respectively.

The 95% CL expected and observed upper limits on �fiducial⇥BR(X ! ��), corresponding to the fiducialvolume defined in Section 6, are computed using the CLs technique [39, 44] for a scalar resonance withnarrow width as a function of the mass hypothesis mX , and are presented in Figure 3.

Model Setup

via photon fusion discussed in Refs. [32, 38]. When a model contains SU(2)L singlet particleswith large U(1)Y hypercharges, the magnitude of the photon fusions in the production and decaysequences is enhanced and we can accommodate the 750GeV excess.

In this paper, we focus on the radiative seesaw models [127–131], especially where neutrinomasses are generated at the three loop level [132–149]. In such type of scenarios, multiple chargedscalars are introduced for realizing three-loop origin of the neutrino mass, (distinctively fromthe models with one or two loops). We show that when these charged scalars couple to thesinglet S strongly enough, we can achieve a reasonable amount of the production cross sectionin pp ! S + X ! �� + X through photon fusion. Concretely, we start from the three loopmodel [146], and extend the model with additional charged scalars to explain the data.

This paper is organized as follows. In Sec. 2, we introduce our model based on the model forthree-loop induced neutrino masses. In Sec. 3, we show detail of analysis and numerical results.In Sec. 4, we are devoted to summary and discussions.

2 Model

Multiple (doubly) charged particles would induce a large radiative coupling with a singlet scalarS with �� via one-loop diagrams. We may find the source from multi-Higgs models or extradimensions [150–167] but here we focus on a model for radiative neutrino masses recently suggestedby some of the authors [146] as a benchmark model, which can be extended with a singlet scalarS for the 750 GeV resonance.

2.1 Review: A model for three-loop induced neutrino mass

Our strategy is based on the three loop induced radiative neutrino model with a U(1) globalsymmetry [146], where we introduce three Majorana fermions NR

1,2,3 and new bosons; one gauge-singlet neutral boson ⌃

, two singly charged singlet scalars (h±1

, h±2

), and one gauge-singlet doublycharged boson k±± to the SM. The particle contents and their charges are shown in Table 1.

The bold letters emphasize that thesenumbers correspond to representations of the Lie groups of the NonAbelian gauge interactions.The scalar particles shown in the right category (New Scalar Fields) are added to the originalmodel proposed in Ref. [146] to explain the 750GeV excess.

3 Analysis

3.1 Formulation of p(�)p(�) ! S +X ! �� +X

Note that under the assumption that additional interactions are only ones shown in Eq. (2.9),possible decay branches of S up to the one-loop level is to ��, Z�, ZZ and k++k�� or j++

a j��a .

We assume that mk±± and mj±±a

are greater than mS/2 (= 375GeV), where the last two decaychannels at the tree level are closed kinematically. In the present case that no tree-level decaybranch is open and only SU(2)L singlet charged scalars describe the loop-induced partial widths,the relative strengths among �S!��, �S!Z�, �S!ZZ and �S!W+W� are governed by quantumnumbers at the one-loop level1 as

�S!�� : �S!Z� : �S!ZZ : �S!W+W� ⇡ 1 : 2

s4Wc4W

: 0. (3.1)

In the following, we calculate �S!ZZ in a simplified way of �S!ZZ ⇡ s2W/(2c2W )�S!Z� ' 0.15�S!Z�.Here, we represent a major part of partial decay widths of S with our notation for loop functions

with the help of Refs. [169–173]. In the following part, for simplicity, we set all the masses of thedoubly charged scalars mj±±

aas the same as mk±± , while we ignore the contributions from the two

singly charged scalars h±1,2 since they should be heavy as at least around 3TeV and decoupled as

mentioned in Appendix. The concrete form of �S!�� and �S!Z� are given as

3.2 Results

Under our assumptions, the relevant parameters are (mk±± , µSk, Nj): the universal physical massof the doubly charged scalars, the universal e↵ective scalar trilinear coupling, and the number ofthe additional doubly charged singlet scalars. We observe the unique relation among the branchingratios of S irrespective of mk±± and µSk, which is suggest by Eq. (3.1), as

B(S ! ��) ' 0.591, B(S ! �Z) ' 0.355, B(S ! ZZ) ' 0.0535. (3.14)

In Fig. 2, situations in our model are summarized. The blue and red curves show the pointsof {mk±± , µSk} predicting �S = 45GeV and �S = 5.3GeV, respectively. The value 45GeV isthe best-fit value of �S reported from the ATLAS experiment [1], while the value 5.3GeV is theexperimental resolution ���

E used in the analysis of [14]. Six cases with di↵erent numbers of doublycharged scalars are considered with Nj = 0, 1, 10, 100, 500 and 1000.

As pointed out in Eq. (3.14), the value of B(S ! ��) is uniquely fixed as ' 60% in thepresent model. From the values in Eqs. (1.1) and (1.2), we set our target cross section �(pp !S +X ! �� +X) at the

ps = 13TeV LHC as 2 ⇠ 10 fb within a 2� confidence level from the

central value ' 6 fb. The green regions in Fig. 2 indicate the areas where we obtain the centralvalue (6 fb) at

ps = 13TeV in the production cross section of p(�)p(�) ! S +X ! �� +X with

varying the parameter q⇤ from 130MeV to 170MeV, which is related to the two choices of thefactorization scale of the photon PDF [defined in Eq. (3.11)] discussed in Ref. [38]. The upper andlower boundaries correspond to the cases of q⇤ = 130MeV and q⇤ = 170MeV, respectively. On theother hand, the yellow regions, on which the green regions are superimposed, show the area wherewe obtain the 0.6 fb cross section at

ps = 8TeV.

Also, we report that when we consider the case with q⇤ = 170MeV, the total width �S shouldbe within [1.59GeV, 7.95GeV] to realize the cross section within 2 ⇠ 10 fb from Eq. (3.13). On theother hand in q⇤ = 130MeV, the favored range of �S is [3.53GeV, 17.6GeV] from Eq. (3.13) if thecross section is within 2 ⇠ 10 fb. We find a tension with the ATLAS best fit value �S = 45GeV inour scenario, which is apparently suggested from panels in Fig. 2.2 From now on, our target valuein �S is set as 5.3GeV.

2When �S = 45GeV, from Eq. (3.13), the target value of B(S ! �� +X) to realize �(p(�)p(�) ! S +X !�� +X) = 6 fb becomes 0.192 (when q⇤ = 170MeV) and 0.287 (when q⇤ = 130MeV).

3.2 Results

Under our assumptions, the relevant parameters are (mk±± , µSk, Nj): the universal physical massof the doubly charged scalars, the universal e↵ective scalar trilinear coupling, and the number ofthe additional doubly charged singlet scalars. We observe the unique relation among the branchingratios of S irrespective of mk±± and µSk, which is suggest by Eq. (3.1), as

B(S ! ��) ' 0.591, B(S ! �Z) ' 0.355, B(S ! ZZ) ' 0.0535. (3.14)

In Fig. 2, situations in our model are summarized. The blue and red curves show the pointsof {mk±± , µSk} predicting �S = 45GeV and �S = 5.3GeV, respectively. The value 45GeV isthe best-fit value of �S reported from the ATLAS experiment [1], while the value 5.3GeV is theexperimental resolution ���

E used in the analysis of [14]. Six cases with di↵erent numbers of doublycharged scalars are considered with Nj = 0, 1, 10, 100, 500 and 1000.

As pointed out in Eq. (3.14), the value of B(S ! ��) is uniquely fixed as ' 60% in thepresent model. From the values in Eqs. (1.1) and (1.2), we set our target cross section �(pp !S +X ! �� +X) at the

ps = 13TeV LHC as 2 ⇠ 10 fb within a 2� confidence level from the

central value ' 6 fb. The green regions in Fig. 2 indicate the areas where we obtain the centralvalue (6 fb) at

ps = 13TeV in the production cross section of p(�)p(�) ! S +X ! �� +X with

varying the parameter q⇤ from 130MeV to 170MeV, which is related to the two choices of thefactorization scale of the photon PDF [defined in Eq. (3.11)] discussed in Ref. [38]. The upper andlower boundaries correspond to the cases of q⇤ = 130MeV and q⇤ = 170MeV, respectively. On theother hand, the yellow regions, on which the green regions are superimposed, show the area wherewe obtain the 0.6 fb cross section at

ps = 8TeV.

Also, we report that when we consider the case with q⇤ = 170MeV, the total width �S shouldbe within [1.59GeV, 7.95GeV] to realize the cross section within 2 ⇠ 10 fb from Eq. (3.13). On theother hand in q⇤ = 130MeV, the favored range of �S is [3.53GeV, 17.6GeV] from Eq. (3.13) if thecross section is within 2 ⇠ 10 fb. We find a tension with the ATLAS best fit value �S = 45GeV inour scenario, which is apparently suggested from panels in Fig. 2.2 From now on, our target valuein �S is set as 5.3GeV.

2When �S = 45GeV, from Eq. (3.13), the target value of B(S ! �� +X) to realize �(p(�)p(�) ! S +X !�� +X) = 6 fb becomes 0.192 (when q⇤ = 170MeV) and 0.287 (when q⇤ = 130MeV).

8TeV

' 0.21 fb and conclude that the 8TeV bound is not harmful for our case.Here, we should mention an important issue. As indicated in Fig. 2, when Nj is zero, more

than 100TeV is required in the e↵ective trilinear coupling µSk. Such a large trilinear couplingimmediately leads to the violation of tree level unitarity in the scattering amplitudes includingµSk, e.g., k++k�� ! k++k�� or SS ! k++k�� at around the energy 1TeV, where the physicswith our interest is spread. Also, the vacuum is possibly threatened by the destabilization viathe large trilinear coupling, which calls charge breaking minima. To evade the problems, naivelyspeaking, the value of µSk is less than 1 ⇠ 10TeV.3 As shown in Fig. 2, when we introduceadditional charged scalars, we can realize �S = 5.3GeV with a smaller value of the commone↵ective trilinear coupling µSk. But, we should consider the bound on the doubly charged singletscalars from the LHC 8TeV data. Note that the production channel of a SU(2)L singlet doublycharged scalar k±± is the following pair creation, pp ! �⇤/Z +X ! k++k�� +X.

Lower bounds at 95% C.L. on mk±± via the 8TeV LHC data were provided by the ATLASgroup in Ref. [179] as 374GeV, 402GeV, 438GeV when assuming a 100% branching ratio to e±e±,e±µ±, µ±µ± pairs, respectively. In our model, the doubly charged scalars can decay through theprocesses as shown in Fig. 3, where h+

’s are o↵ shell since it should be heavy at least 3TeV. In thecase of k++ in Nj = 0, when the values of µ

are the same or similar, from Eq. (2.2), therelative branching ratios between k++ ! µ+µ+⌫i⌫j and k++ ! µ+µ+ are roughly proportional to(yL)2i(yL)2j and ((yR)22)2. As concluded in our previous work [146], the absolute value of (yR)22should be large as around 8 ⇠ 9 to generate the observed neutrino properties, while a typicalmagnitude of (yL)2i is 0.5 ⇠ 1. Then, the decay branch k++ ! µ+µ+ is probably dominant as⇠ 100% and we need to consider the 8TeV bound seriously. A simplest attitude would be to avoidto examine the shaded regions in Fig. 2, which indicate the excluded parts in 95% C.L. via theATLAS 8TeV data with the assumption of B(k±± ! µ±µ±) = 100% [179].
