We study lepton number violating decays of charged K, D, D_s, B and B_c mesons of the form M^+\to {M'}^-\ell^+\ell^+, induced by the existence of Majorana neutrinos. These processes provide information complementary to neutrinoless double nuclear beta decays, and are sensitive to neutrino masses and lepton mixing. We explore neutrino mass ranges m_N from below 1 eV to several hundred GeV. We find that in many cases the branching ratios are prohibitively small, however in the intermediate range m_\pi < m_N < m_{B_c}, in specific channels and for specific neutrino masses, the branching ratios can be at the reach of high luminosity experiments like those at the LHC-b and future Super flavor-factories, and can provide bounds on the lepton mixing parameters.

Heavy neutral leptons from light scalar in fixed target and forward search experiments
SHiP and FPF@FCC-hh are projected to extend experimental sensitivity to a light scalar mixing with the Higgs and to long-lived heavy neutrinos in a B-L seesaw model, with SHiP strongest for scalar masses around 0.5-1 GeV.

Systematic Spurion Matching between Low Energy EFT and Chiral Lagrangian
A single SU(3)_V spurion can organize both LEFT and chiral Lagrangian operators up to dimension 9, enabling systematic operator-level matching between quark and hadron levels.

Searching for a Sterile Neutrino in Tau Decays at B-factories
A displaced-vertex search in tau decays at BaBar, Belle, and Belle II could set limits on tau-mixing sterile neutrinos below the current DELPHI bound.

Sensitivity of Lepton Number Violating Meson Decays in Different Experiments
For 0.14 to 6 GeV heavy neutrinos, accounting for the parent meson's velocity weakens projected LNV meson decay sensitivities by one to two orders of magnitude at NA62 and SHiP.
