The Diboson Excesses in Leptophobic U(1)_(rm LP) Models from String Theories

The ATLAS Collaboration has reported excesses in the search for resonant diboson production with decay modes to hadronic final states at a diboson invariant mass around 2 TeV in boosted jets from $WZ$, $W^+W^-$, and $ZZ$ channels. Given potential contamination, we investigate the anomalies in leptophobic $U(1)_{\rm LP}$ models. We show that leptophobic models can be constructed in flipped $SU(5)\times U(1)_X$ models from free fermionic string constructions and Pati-Salam models from D-brane constructions. Additionally, we perform a collider phenomenological analysis to study production cross sections for $pp \to Z' \to jj/t \bar{t}/WW/Zh$ and discover the excess can be interpreted in both the leptophobic flipped $SU(5)\times U(1)_X$ models and intersecting D-branes.
