abstract

We study the possibility of the LHeC facility to disentangle different new physics contributions to the production of heavy sterile Majorana neutrinos in the lepton number violating channel $e^{-}p\rightarrow l_{j}^{+} + 3 jets$ ($l_j\equiv e ,\mu $). This is done investigating the angular and polarization trails of effective operators with distinct Dirac-Lorentz structure contributing to the Majorana neutrino production, which parameterize new physics from a higher energy scale. We study an asymmetry in the angular distribution of the final anti-lepton and the initial electron polarization effect on the number of signal events produced by the vectorial and scalar effective interactions, finding both analyses could well separate their contributions.

  • Heavy neutral leptons and top quarks in effective field theory hep-ph · 2025-01-15 · conditional · none · ref 55 · internal anchor

    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.
