Radiative neutrino models in light of diphoton signals

Abstract: Viable explanations of a hinted 750 GeV scalar resonance may be sought within the extensions of the SM Higgs sector aimed at generating neutrino masses at the loop level. We confront a compatibility with the 750 GeV diphoton excess for two recent models which do not need to impose ad hoc symmetry to forbid the tree-level masses: a one-loop mass model providing the H(750) candidate within its real triplet scalar representation and a three-loop mass model providing it within its two Higgs doublets. Besides accounting for the 750 GeV resonance, we demonstrate that these complementary neutrino-mass scenarios have different testable predictions for the LHC which should show up soon as more data is accumulated during the ongoing 13 TeV run.
