We compare the predictions of this scenario with the ATLAS search for long-lived particles using displaced lepton pairs in pp collisions, considering an optimization of the trigger requirements by means of a high level trigger that exploits tracker information. The analysis is carried out in the general case of three families of right-handed neutrino superfields, where all the neutrinos get contributions to their masses at tree level. To analyze the parameter space, we sample the $\mu$nu SSM for a tau left sneutrino LSP with proper decay length c tau>0.1mm using a likelihood data-driven method, and paying special attention to reproduce the current experimental data on neutrino and Higgs physics, as well as flavor observables. The sneutrino is special in the $\mu$nu SSM since its couplings have to be chosen so that the neutrino oscillation data are reproduced. We find that important regions of the parameter space can be probed at the LHC run 3.", optnote="WOS:000497763100006", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=4204), last updated on Mon, 09 Dec 2019 22:13:41 +0000", issn="1434-6044", doi="10.1140/epjc/s10052-019-7412-1", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/1907.02092", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-019-7412-1", language="English" }
