Non-unitarity effects in a realistic low-scale seesaw model

Abstract

We analyze the structure of the non-unitary leptonic mixing matrix in the inverse seesaw model with heavy singlets accessible at the LHC. In this model, unlike in the usual TeV seesaw scenarios, thelow-scale right-handed neutrinos do not suffer from naturalness issues. Underlying correlations among various parameters governing the non-unitarity effects are established, which leads to a considerable improvement of the generic non-unitarity bounds. In view of this, we study the discovery potential of the non-unitarity effects at future experiments, focusing on the sensitivity limits at a neutrino factory.
