abstract

High-energy muon collider can play as an emitter of electroweak gauge bosons and thus leads to substantial vector boson scattering (VBS) processes. In this work, we investigate the production of heavy neutral lepton (HNL) $N$ and lepton number violation (LNV) signature through VBS at high-energy muon colliders. VBS induces LNV processes $W^\pm Z/\gamma\to \ell^\pm N \to \ell^\pm \ell^\pm W^\mp\to \ell^\pm \ell^\pm q\bar{q}'$ with an on-shell HNL $N$ at $\mu^+\mu^-$ colliders. In analogy to neutrinoless double-beta decay with the HNL in t-channel, the LNV signature $W^+W^+\to \ell^+\ell^+$ can also happen via VBS at same-sign muon collider. They provide clean and robust LNV signatures to tell the nature of Majorana HNLs and thus have more advantageous benefits than direct $\mu\mu$ annihilation. We analyze the potential of searching for Majorana HNL and obtain the exclusion limits on mixing $V_{\ell N}$. Based on this same-sign lepton signature, we also obtain the sensitivity of muon collider to the Weinberg operator.

  1. Neutrino t-channels at Colliders: When Light Neutrinos Matter

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The same-sign WW→ℓℓ t-channel signal for heavy Majorana neutrinos is cancelled by light-neutrino contributions in the seesaw model; the opposite-sign eµjj channel is a better probe.

  2. Multiboson Signatures of Doubly Charged Scalars at a Same-Sign Muon Collider

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A same-sign muon collider at 2 TeV with 1 ab^-1 could reach 2-sigma sensitivity to Type-II seesaw doubly charged scalars decaying to WW up to roughly 425-430 GeV, slightly extending current LHC coverage.

  3. Search for heavy Majorana neutrinos at muon-proton colliders via lepton-number-violating signals

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Simulates LNV signals from heavy Majorana neutrinos (200-3000 GeV) at a 5.3 TeV μp collider and projects 2σ limits on |V_ℓN|² superior to LHC bounds for 100 fb⁻¹ and 1 ab⁻¹ luminosities.

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    MuTRISTAN's mu+mu+ mode could discover a mu-tau flavor-changing Z' with gauge coupling near 0.024 for masses around 500 GeV.

  5. Vector Boson Fusion Signatures of Superheavy Majorana Neutrinos at Muon Colliders

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Future muon colliders could probe heavy Majorana neutrino masses via t-channel vector boson fusion, with projected exclusions in the (mass, mixing) plane from cut-based and BDT analyses.
