Multiboson signals in the UN2HDM

Abstract

Abstract We address multiboson production from a heavy $$Z'$$ Z ′ resonance in the context of the UN2HDM, a standard model extension with an additional $$\text {U}(1)'$$ U ( 1 ) ′ symmetry and an enlarged scalar sector with an extra doublet and a singlet. After taking into account theoretical and experimental constraints on the model, it turns out this type of signals – mostly uncovered by current searches – could be sizeable. We focus on three benchmark scenarios, each of them predicting up to 4000 multiboson events with the LHC Run 2 collected luminosity. Anomaly-detection methods could uncover those signals, if present in data.
