Has a Higgs-flavon with a 750 GeV mass been detected at the LHC13?

Higgs-flavon fields appear as a part of the Froggatt–Nielsen (FN) mechanism, which attempts to explain the hierarchy of Yukawa couplings. We explore the possibility that the 750 GeV diphoton resonance recently reported at the LHC13 could be identified with a low-scale Higgs-flavon field HF and find...
