Lepton number violation: seesaw models and their collider tests

Y Cai, T Han, T Li, R Ruiz - Frontiers in Physics, 2018 - frontiersin.org
The Majorana nature of neutrinos is strongly motivated from the theoretical and
phenomenological point of view. A plethora of neutrino mass models, known collectively as …

The search for heavy Majorana neutrinos

A Atre, T Han, S Pascoli, B Zhang - Journal of High Energy …, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
The Majorana nature of neutrinos can be experimentally verified only via lepton-number
violating processes involving charged leptons. We study 36 lepton-number violating (LV) …

Right-handed neutrinos at CERN LHC and the mechanism of neutrino mass generation

J Kersten, AY Smirnov - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2007 - APS
We consider the possibility to detect right-handed neutrinos, which are mostly singlets of the
standard model gauge group, at future accelerators. Substantial mixing of these neutrinos …

Low energy effects of neutrino masses

A Abada, C Biggio, F Bonnet, MB Gavela… - Journal of High …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
While all models of Majorana neutrino masses lead to the same dimension five effective
operator, which does not conserve lepton number, the dimension six operators induced at …

Distinguishing seesaw models at LHC with multi-lepton signals

F Del Aguila, JA Aguilar-Saavedra - Nuclear Physics B, 2009 - Elsevier
We investigate the LHC discovery potential for electroweak scale heavy neutrino singlets
(seesaw I), scalar triplets (seesaw II) and fermion triplets (seesaw III). For seesaw I we …

Neutrino masses and the LHC: testing type II seesaw

PF Perez, T Han, G Huang, T Li, K Wang - arXiv preprint arXiv:0805.3536, 2008 - arxiv.org
We demonstrate how to systematically test a well-motivated mechanism for neutrino mass
generation (Type-II seesaw) at the LHC, in which a Higgs triplet is introduced. In the …

Conformal dynamics for TeV physics and cosmology

F Sannino - arXiv preprint arXiv:0911.0931, 2009 - arxiv.org
We introduce the topic of dynamical breaking of the electroweak symmetry and its link to
unparticle physics and cosmology. The knowledge of the phase diagram of strongly coupled …

Probing leptogenesis

EJ Chun, G Cvetič, PSB Dev, M Drewes… - … Journal of Modern …, 2018 - World Scientific
The focus of this paper lies on the possible experimental tests of leptogenesis scenarios. We
consider both leptogenesis generated from oscillations, as well as leptogenesis from out-of …

Type-III seesaw mechanism at CERN LHC

R Franceschini, T Hambye, A Strumia - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2008 - APS
Neutrino masses can be generated by fermion triplets with TeV-scale mass, that would
manifest at LHC as production of two leptons together with two heavy standard model (SM) …

New paradigm for baryon and lepton number violation

PF Perez - Physics reports, 2015 - Elsevier
The possible discovery of proton decay, neutron–antineutron oscillation, neutrinoless
double beta decay in low energy experiments, and exotic signals related to the violation of …
