Abstract

We show that the 750 GeV di-photon excess could be explained by the Q{\mathcal Q}-onium system of a new QCD-like theory with fermions vectorial under the SM. Beside the spin-0 di-photon singlet this scenario predicts almost degenerate colored scalars and spin-1 resonances analogous to the J/ΨJ/\Psi in QCD. All these states are within the reach of the LHC. An apparent large width can be explained as due to production of excited states with splitting ΔmΓ\Delta m\sim \Gamma.
