Search for Heavy Resonance decaying into WW, WZ or ZZ

Our group participated in the search for a heavy resonance particle that decays into a pair of gauge bosons (WW, WZ or ZZ). We work on the vvqq final state that covers both the WZ and ZZ decay channels. The search is conducted on ATLAS Run2 data sample and the heavy resonance is searched over a wide mass range from 500 GeV to 3000 GeV.  The results, published in JHEP 09 (2016) 173, are interpreted in several theoretical models (e.g. heavy scalar singlet, heavy vector boson triplet, and bulk Randall-Sundrum model).
