Probing left-right seesaw in colliders R. N. Mohapatra ACFI Neutrino workshop, July 2017
Why left-right seesaw? n Two basic ingredients of seesaw: (i) Right handed neutrinos (ii) Broken B-L symmetry n Both automatic in left-right models n If scale is in the TeV range, a plethora of experimental implications

Symmetry origin of Majorana Neutrinos n Electric charge formula: Q = I 3 L + I 3 R + B − L 2 n Above EW scale, ∆ Q = ∆ I 3 L = 0 → ∆ I 3 R = − 1 2 ∆ L
Parity breaking as origin of Majorana Neutrino mass n Electric charge formula in LR (contrast this with SM) Q = I 3 L + I 3 R + B − L 2 n Above EW scale, ∆ Q = ∆ I 3 L = 0 → ∆ I 3 R = − 1 2 ∆ L n Parity breaking à Majorana nu (RNM, Marshak’80)
Can type I seesaw scale be in the TeV range? n Typically, ; m D = h ν v wk n So for ; seesaw scale h ν ' 10 − 5 . 5 ⇠ h e v R could easily be in the TeV range and fit oscillation data; n Hence W R, Z’ accessible to colliders. M W R = g R v R ∼ fewTeV

Inverse seesaw and GUTs n Neutrino mass is determined by small mu- parameter à can be >> 10 -5.5 (could even h ν be ~h t allowing for quark lepton unification) (Dev, RNM’10) TeV Inverse seesaw embeddable in GUTs unlike TeV scale type I.

Current LHC searches n 0.1 M WR < M N < M WR ; n Leptons, jets clearly separated n Look for bumps in inv. Mass `` jj n for one lepton p T > 60 GeV n for the other p T > 40 GeV and also for jets (CMS)
Current limit from LHC n Current limit from dijet data: 2.8 TeV(g L =g R ) n LHC14 reach 5-6 TeV
g L = g R depends on scale of P breaking n In general if P-breaking takes place at a higher scale than SU(2) R breaking, g R < g L (Chang, RNM, Parida’84) n Important because this allows W R to be lighter than apparent collider and FCNC limits; n How low can g R be? Theoretical lower bound: g R > 0.66 g L (Brehmer, Hewett, Rizzo, Kopp,Tattersel’14; Dev, RNM, Zhang’16)
M N < 0.1 M WR n ATLAS/CMS sensitivities break down (Mitra, Ruiz, Scott, Spanowsky’16) n Use neutrino jets instead to recover lost sensitivity

Rare decays of SM Higgs from seesaw n . h → `` 4 j • Displaced vertices at LHC (Maiezza, Nemevsek,Nesti’15; Miha’s talk; However, similar decay for SM seesaw: Lopez-Pavon et al’17)
Light H 3 (0.1-10 GeV) and displaced vertices n Motivation for light Higgs H 3 n H 3 analog of SM Higgs- connected to B-L breaking. n If SU(2) R x U(1) B-L is broken radiatively, there is a good chance that is light: H 0 3 ≡ Re ∆ 0 R (Dev, RNM, Yongchao Zhang, PRD’17; 1703.02471)
Reason for displaced vertices:FCNC constraints: n H 3 is a linear combination of SM Higgs h and LR new Higgs H 1 ( ) and has effective quark θ 1 , θ 2 coupling of the form: n For light H 3 , B and K-decays limit the value of mixing angles (barring cancellation)
FCNC Processes: n Expts: For B decays: n K-decays:
constraints on H 3 mixings from B-decays (Babar,Belle,LHCb) n Mixing with SM Higgs and heavy LR Higgs H 0 ( θ 1 , θ 2 ) are strongly constrained for m~GeV; (Dev, RNM, Zhang’16-17)
