We study the sensitivity of displaced vertex searches for heavy neutrinos produced in W boson decays in the LHC detectors ATLAS, CMS and LHCb. We also propose a new search that uses the muon chambers to detect muons from heavy neutrino decays outside the tracker. The sensitivity estimates are based on benchmark models in which the heavy neutrinos mix exclusively with one of the three Standard Model generations. In the most sensitive mass regime the displaced vertex searches can improve existing constraints on the mixing with the first two Standard Model generations by more than four orders of magnitude and by three orders of magnitude for the mixing with the third generation.

  1. Revealing Neutrino Mass Ordering at CEPC and FCC-ee

    hep-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the minimal two-HNL seesaw, heavy neutral lepton flavor mixings encode the normal vs inverted neutrino mass ordering, and CEPC/FCC-ee could distinguish them for total mixing U_tot^2 ≳ 10^-6.

  2. Searches for heavy neutral lepton decays at spallation neutron sources

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Current and future COHERENT detectors at the SNS can set competitive limits on HNL–neutrino mixings through pion/muon DAR production and in-detector e+e− decays, with muon mixing offering the strongest near-term reach.

  3. Probing electroweak pair production of heavy neutral leptons with displaced vertices at the LHC

    hep-ph 2025-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    LHC displaced-vertex data can exclude sterile neutrinos with masses 20-230 GeV and mixings down to 4e-14 when they are produced in pairs from higgsino decays.

  4. Neutrinoless double beta decay rates and the $3 + 2$ scenario

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 2.0 of 10

    A proceedings review of the author's prior EFT calculation of neutrinoless double beta decay and of a two-sterile-neutrino model, containing no new derivation.
