We focus on the effective operators of lowest dimension d = 5, which induce new production and decay modes for the singlet fermions. We assess the sensitivity of future Higgs Factories, such as FCC-ee, CLIC-380, ILC and CEPC, to the coefficients of these operators for various center of mass energies. We show that future lepton colliders can test the cut-off of the theory up to Lambda similar or equal to 500-1000 TeV, surpassing the reach of future indirect measurements of the Higgs and Z boson widths. We also comment on the possibility of determining the underlying model flavor structure should a New Physics signal be observed, and on the impact of higher dimensional d = 6 operators on the experimental signatures.", optnote="WOS:000629645800001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=4766), last updated on Tue, 13 Apr 2021 18:26:06 +0000", issn="1029-8479", doi="10.1007/JHEP03(2021)117", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2011.04725", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP03(2021)117", language="English" }
