Abstract

A recent ATLAS search for diboson resonances and a CMS search for eejjeejj resonances which both show excesses with significance around 3 sigma have generated interest in SU(2)RSU(2)_R gauge extensions of the Standard Model with a WW' mass around 2 TeV. We investigate the possibility that an SU(2)RSU(2)_R gauge extension of the MSSM compatible with an explanation of the diboson anomaly might give rise to a significant enhancement of the Higgs mass above the MSSM tree level bound mh,tree<90  GeVm_{h, \text{tree}} < 90 \; \text{GeV} due to non-decoupling D-terms. This model contains a vector-like charge -1/3 SU(2)RSU(2)_R singlet quark for each generation which mixes significantly with the SU(2)RSU(2)_R doublet quarks, affecting the WRW_R phenomenology. We find that it is possible to achieve mh,tree>110  GeVm_{h, \text{tree}} > 110 \; \text {GeV}, and this requires that the ZZ' mass is close to 3 TeV.
