Effective portals to heavy neutral leptons

E Fernández-Martínez, M González-López… - Journal of High Energy …, 2023 - Springer
A bstract The existence of right-handed neutrinos, or heavy neutral leptons (HNLs), is
strongly motivated by the observation of neutrino masses and mixing. The mass of these …

Probing the dipole portal to heavy neutral leptons via meson decays at the high-luminosity LHC

D Barducci, W Liu, A Titov, ZS Wang, Y Zhang - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We consider the dipole portal to sterile neutrinos, also called heavy neutral leptons (HNLs).
The dipole interaction with the photon leads to HNL production in meson decays as well as …

Probing right-handed neutrinos dipole operators

D Barducci, E Bertuzzo, M Taoso, C Toni - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract We consider the minimal see-saw extension of the Standard Model with two right-
handed singlet fermions N 1, 2 with mass at the GeV scale, augmented by an effective …

Dipole portal and neutrinophilic scalars at DUNE revisited: The importance of the high-energy neutrino tail

M Ovchynnikov, T Schwetz, JY Zhu - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We estimate the sensitivity of the DUNE experiment to new physics particles interacting with
neutrinos, considering the dipole portal to heavy neutral leptons and a neutrinophilic scalar …

Dipole-coupled heavy-neutral-lepton explanations of the MiniBooNE excess including constraints from MINERvA data

NW Kamp, M Hostert, A Schneider, S Vergani… - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We revisit models of heavy neutral leptons (neutrissimos) with transition magnetic moments
as explanations of the 4.8 σ excess of electronlike events at MiniBooNE. We first reexamine …

Probing active-sterile neutrino transition magnetic moments at LEP and CEPC

Y Zhang, W Liu - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We consider the sterile neutrino, which is also known as heavy neutral lepton, interacting
with the Standard Model (SM) active neutrino and photon via a transition magnetic moment …

Heavy neutral leptons from kaons in effective field theory

R Beltrán, J Günther, M Hirsch, A Titov, ZS Wang - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
In the framework of the low-energy effective theory containing, in addition to the Standard-
Model fields, heavy neutral leptons (HNLs), we compute the decay rates of neutral and …

Testing neutrino dipole portal by long-lived particle detectors at the LHC

W Liu, Y Zhang - The European Physical Journal C, 2023 - Springer
We discuss the potential of using detectors aimed for searching long-lived particles (LLP) at
the high-luminosity LHC run, to probe the neutrino dipole models. This is achieved by taking …

Search for the dipole portal of heavy neutral leptons at future colliders

M Ovchynnikov, JY Zhu - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract In this paper, we study the potential of future colliders to explore the parameter
space of heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) through the dipole portal. We consider hadron …

Completing the one-loop νSMEFT renormalization group evolution

M Ardu, X Marcano - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract In this work we consider the Standard Model Effective Field Theory extended with
right-handed neutrinos, the νSMEFT, and calculate the full set of one-loop anomalous …
