Searches for diboson resonances with boosted W/Z boson tagging with the ATLAS detector at LHC Run 1

Resonant production of two electroweak gauge bosons (WW, WZ, ZZ) is a smoking gun signature for physics beyond the Standard Model, and various possibilities resulting in such signatures have been proposed, e.g. Extended Gauge Models with heavy charged/neutral bosons (W', Z'), bulk Randall-Sundum excitation of the graviton (G*) in extra dimensions, and strongly coupled theories such as Technicolor (e.g. techni-rho meson). Searches for such high-mass resonances can obtain a significant sensitivity gain by exploiting techniques to identify the hadronic decay of boosted W and Z bosons. This talk summarizes ATLAS searches for diboson resonances in final states including hadronic jets with boosted W/Z boson tagging at LHC Run 1.
