Abstract

Recently, we proposed to picture the Higgs condensate of the Standard Model as a quantum liquid analogous to the superfluid Helium II. In this scenario the Higgs condensate excitations resemble closely two Standard Model Higgs bosons. The lightest Higgs boson was already identified with the LHC narrow resonance at 125 GeV. Concerning the heavy Higgs boson, we found preliminary evidence in our previous phenomenological analysis in the so-called golden channel. In the present note we compared our proposal to the full Run 2 data set released recently by the ATLAS Collaboration. Even though we do not found a clear statistical evidence for our Standard Model heavy Higgs, we found that our theoretical proposal is still in accordance with the available observations.
