Searches for Majorana Neutrinos and Direct Searches for Exotics at LHCb

Abstract

These proceedings present the LHCb results on Majorana neutrino searches and direct production of exotic particles using the data collected during Run I of LHC. For the former, Majorana neutrinos are searched for both on-shell and off-shell in $B$ and $D$ decays to final states with two same-sign muons. For the latter, different types of new particles are studied profiting the unique coverage of LHCb with respect to other detectors.

9 pages, 27 figures. To be published in the LISHEP 2015 proceedings
