On a possible origin of a resonance-like structure in the two-photon invariant mass spectrum of the reaction pp->ppgg

We show that the resonance-like structure found by the \emph{CELSIUS-WASA Collaboration} in the two-photon invariant mass spectrum of the reaction $pp \to pp \gamma \gamma$isratherasignatureofthe$NN$-decoupled dibaryon resonance $d_1^{\star }$(1956) that is produced in the radiative process $pp \to \gamma d^\star_1$andthenundergoesradiativedecayintotwoprotons$d^\star_1 \to pp \gamma$. It is found that a contribution of the dibaryon mechanism $pp\to \gamma d_1^{\star }\to pp\gamma \gamma$ of the reaction $pp \to pp \gamma \gamma$ to the invariant mass spectrum of its photon pairs can reasonably well reproduce the experimentally observed spectrum in the vicinity of the resonance-like structure.
