The sensitivity of beam dump experiments to heavy neutral leptons depends on the relative strength of their couplings to individual lepton flavours in the Standard Model. We study the impact of present neutrino oscillation data on these couplings in the minimal type I seesaw model and find that it significantly constrains the allowed heavy neutrino flavour mixing patterns. We estimate the effect that the DUNE experiment will have on these predictions. We then discuss implication that this has for the sensitivity of the NA62 experiment when operated in the beam dump mode and provide sensitivity estimates for different benchmark scenarios. We find that the sensitivity can vary by almost two orders of magnitude for general choices of the model parameters, but depends only weakly on the flavour mixing pattern within the parameter range that is preferred by neutrino oscillation data.

Lepton number violation at hadron colliders via pseudo-Dirac heavy neutral leptons
Damped oscillations alleviate LN violation suppression for pseudo-Dirac HNLs, improving collider sensitivities and allowing distinction from the double-Majorana limit.

Low-scale seesaw with flavour and CP symmetries $\unicode{x2013}$ from colliders to leptogenesis
For four flavour-symmetry cases, this paper maps heavy-neutrino lifetimes, decay flavour ratios, and the parameter space where leptogenesis works and colliders can test it.

Heavy Neutral Leptons without Prejudice
HL-LHC and FCC-ee can probe HNL Yukawa couplings down to y^2 near 10^-4 to 10^-6 depending on mass; at zero mixing, Higgs width precision is the strongest constraint and the two colliders have comparable reach.

Neutrino oscillation data and a pseudo-Dirac heavy neutral lepton
In the minimal pseudo-Dirac HNL scenario, light-neutrino oscillation data fixes an ellipse in the active flavour simplex for leading active-heavy interactions via a single complex amplitude and Majorana phase.
