abstract
A search for heavy Majorana neutrinos in scattering of same-sign $W$ boson pairs in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}= 13$ TeV at the LHC is reported. The dataset used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb$^{-1}$, collected with the ATLAS detector during 2015-2018. The search is performed in final states including a same-sign $ee$ or $e\mu$ pair and at least two jets with large invariant mass and a large rapidity difference. No significant excess of events with respect to the Standard Model background predictions is observed. The results are interpreted in a benchmark scenario of the Phenomenological Type-I Seesaw model. New constraints are set on the values of the $\vert V_{e N} \vert^{2}$ and $\vert V_{e N} V^{*}_{\mu N} \vert$ parameters for heavy Majorana neutrino masses between 50 GeV and 20 TeV, where $V_{\ell N}$ is the matrix element describing the mixing of the heavy Majorana neutrino mass eigenstate with the Standard Model neutrino of flavour $\ell = e, \mu$. The sensitivity to the Weinberg operator is investigated and constraints on the effective $ee$ and $e\mu$ Majorana neutrino masses are reported. The statistical combination of the $ee$ and $e\mu$ channels with the previously published $\mu\mu$ channel is performed.

Search for heavy Majorana neutrinos in vector boson scattering with $\tau$-lepton final states with the ATLAS detector
ATLAS finds no evidence for heavy Majorana neutrinos in same-sign tau-lepton final states and sets new 95% CL upper limits on |V_τN|², reaching 0.30 at m_N = 900 GeV and extending to m_N = 6.5 TeV.

Direct constraints on the agnostic $\nu$SMEFT from heavy-neutrino searches at the LHC
A recast of CMS same-sign-dimuon data places the first direct bounds on the agnostic νSMEFT, excluding couplings below ~5.8×10⁻⁷ GeV⁻² at m_N≈1.5 TeV.

Dark Matter-Driven Low-Scale Leptogenesis via Neutrino Portal
A model with three right-handed neutrinos and a dark-matter portal generates the baryon asymmetry at a 2-TeV scale, but the benchmark used to match observations makes dark matter underabundant.

Search for heavy neutral leptons in decays of W bosons produced in 13 TeV pp collisions using prompt signatures in the ATLAS detector
The ATLAS search finds no evidence of heavy neutral leptons in W boson decays and sets the strongest limits to date on their mixing with electron and muon neutrinos in the 15-30 GeV mass range.

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