Besides Kaluza-Klein (KK) partners, the warped extra-dimensional/Randall-Sundrum (RS)
models predict the existence of a scalar particle, the radion, which arises as
a fluctuation of the fifth compomnent of the 5D metric. The radion is
typically lighter than the KK states, thus being possibly the
lightest new particle predicted by the RS models. In this talk, I will briefly
discuss how...

An overview of the search for $Z\gamma$ resonances using proton-proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS detector is presented. A search for evidence of an SM Higgs boson undergoing the decay $H \rightarrow Z\gamma, Z\rightarrow \ell \ell$, where $\ell = e$ or $\mu$, has been performed, and a brief summary of the most recent public results is given. A search for exotic high mass...

Motivated by new metastable massive particles in a variety of
extensions of the Standard Model (SM), I propose a new analysis
based on Displaced Vertices (DVs) at the LHC. I show that, if
metastable particles are pair-produced, two decay vertices can be
distinguished with the performance of the LHC detectors if they are
separated by $ \ge 100~\mu{\rm m}$. I discuss that the...

A search is presented using events with $b$-jets, sizable missing transverse energy and total transverse momentum from leptons and jets ($H_{T}$), and at least two leptons with the same charge in the final state. The Standard Model processes that produce final states of this sort are relatively rare, so the SM backgrounds for this search are low. Several signal models are explored, which could...
