Neutrino oscillation data and a pseudo-Dirac heavy neutral lepton

Jan Hajer

Symmetry-protected seesaw models can accommodate light-neutrino oscillation data while keeping heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) within collider reach. In these models, the smallness of…

Simulating lepton number violation induced by heavy neutrino-antineutrino oscillations at colliders

Stefan Antusch, Jan Hajer, Johannes Rosskopp

We study pseudo-Dirac pairs of two almost mass-degenerate sterile Majorana neutrinos which generate light neutrino masses via a low-scale seesaw mechanism. These pseudo-Dirac heavy…
