abstract

The charged current production of long-lived heavy neutrinos at the LHC can use a prompt charged lepton for triggering the measurement of the process. However, in order to fully characterize the heavy neutrino interactions, it is necessary to also probe Higgs or $Z$ mediated neutral current production. In this case the charged lepton is not available, so other means of triggering are required. In this work, we explore the possibility of using a vector boson fusion trigger in the context of a GeV-scale Type I Seesaw model. We consider a minimal model, where both Higgs and Z-mediated contributions produce one heavy neutrino, as well as an extended model where the Higgs can decay into two heavy ones. Both scenarios are tested through displaced dilepton and displaced multitrack jet searches.

  1. Revealing Neutrino Mass Ordering at CEPC and FCC-ee

    hep-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the minimal two-HNL seesaw, heavy neutral lepton flavor mixings encode the normal vs inverted neutrino mass ordering, and CEPC/FCC-ee could distinguish them for total mixing U_tot^2 ≳ 10^-6.

  2. Heavy neutral leptons and top quarks in effective field theory

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Long-lived heavy neutral leptons produced via top-quark effective operators could be probed at the HL-LHC up to new-physics scales around 12 TeV at ATLAS and 4.5 TeV at MATHUSLA or ANUBIS.

  3. Simulations of the Sterile Neutrino Oscillations with a Crossing-Width Term

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A two-step diagonalization plus a dummy-particle trick lets standard event generators simulate GeV-scale sterile neutrino oscillations with crossing-width terms, and a QFT derivation gives displaced-vertex distances.

  4. Heavy Neutral Leptons without Prejudice

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    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.
