Searches for new phenomena in high-mass diphoton final states with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC
are presented. The analysis is based on pp collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of
36.7 fb−1 at a centre-of-mass energy √s = 13 TeV recorded in 2015 and 2016. Searches are performed
for resonances with spin 0, as predicted by theories with an extended Higgs sector, and for resonances
with spin 2, using a warped extra-dimension model as a benchmark model, as well as for non-resonant
signals, assuming a large extra-dimension scenario. No significant deviation from the Standard Model is
observed. Upper limits are placed on the production cross section times branching ratio to two photons
as a function of the resonance mass. In addition, lower limits are set on the ultraviolet cutoff scale in the
large extra-dimensions model.
