Title Neutrinoless double-beta decay and physics beyond the standard model Type Journal Article
Year 2012 Publication (up) Journal of Physics G Abbreviated Journal J. Phys. G
Volume 39 Issue 12 Pages 124007 - 23pp
Keywords
Abstract Neutrinoless double-beta decay is the most powerful tool to probe not only for Majorana neutrino masses but for lepton number violating physics in general. We discuss relations between lepton number violation, double-beta decay and neutrino mass, review a general Lorentz-invariant parametrization of the double-beta decay rate, highlight a number of different new physics models showing how different mechanisms can trigger double-beta decay and, finally, discuss possibilities of discriminating and testing these models and mechanisms in complementary experiments.

Title Flavor in heavy neutrino searches at the LHC Type Journal Article
Year 2012 Publication (up) Physical Review D Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. D
Volume 85 Issue 9 Pages 091301 - 4pp
Keywords
Abstract Heavy neutrinos at the TeV scale have been searched for at the LHC in the context of left-right models, under the assumption that they couple to the electron, the muon, or both. We show that current searches are also sensitive to heavy neutrinos coupling predominantly to the tau lepton, and present limits can significantly constrain the parameter space of general flavor mixing.

Title Heavy neutrinos and lepton flavor violation in left-right symmetric models at the LHC Type Journal Article
Year 2012 Publication (up) Physical Review D Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. D
Volume 86 Issue 5 Pages 055006 - 20pp
Keywords
Abstract We discuss lepton flavor violating processes induced in the production and decay of heavy right-handed neutrinos at the LHC. Such particles appear in left-right symmetrical extensions of the standard model as the messengers of neutrino mass generation, and can have masses at the TeV scale. We determine the expected sensitivity on the right-handed neutrino mixing matrix, as well as on the right-handed gauge boson and heavy neutrino masses. By comparing the sensitivity of the LHC with that of searches for low energy lepton flavor violating processes, we identify favorable areas of the parameter space to explore the complementarity between lepton flavor violating at low and high energies.

Title Is charged lepton flavor violation a high energy phenomenon? Type Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication (up) Physical Review D Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. D
Volume 89 Issue 5 Pages 051302 - 5pp
Keywords
Abstract Searches for rare processes such as μ-> e gamma put stringent limits on lepton flavor violation expected in many beyond-the-Standard-Model physics scenarios. This usually precludes the observation of flavor violation at high energy colliders such as the LHC. We here discuss a scenario where right-handed neutrinos are produced via a Z' portal but which can only decay via small flavor violating couplings. Consequently, the process rate is unsuppressed by the small couplings and can be visible despite unobservably small μ-> e gamma rates.

Title Falsifying high-scale baryogenesis with neutrinoless double beta decay and lepton flavor violation Type Journal Article
Year 2015 Publication (up) Physical Review D Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. D
Volume 92 Issue 3 Pages 036005 - 6pp
Keywords
Abstract Interactions that manifest themselves as lepton number violating processes at low energies in combination with sphaleron transitions typically erase any preexisting baryon asymmetry of the Universe. In this article, we discuss the constraints obtained from an observation of neutrinoless double beta decay in this context. If a new physics mechanism of neutrinoless double beta decay other than the standard light neutrino exchange is observed, typical scenarios of high-scale baryogenesis will be excluded unless the baryon asymmetry is stabilized via some new mechanism. We also sketch how this conclusion can be extended beyond the first lepton generation by incorporating lepton flavor violating processes.
