Natural TeV-Scale Left-Right Seesaw for Neutrinos and Experimental Tests
Abstract
We present a TeV-scale left-right ultraviolet completion of type-I seesaw for neutrino masses based on the gauge group without parity, which leads to "large" light-heavy neutrino mixing while keeping the neutrino masses small in a natural manner guaranteed by discrete symmetries. We point out specific observable implications of this class of models if the -breaking scale is of order 5 TeV, in searches for lepton flavor violating processes such as , and conversion in nuclei, and lepton number violating processes such as neutrinoless double beta decay as well as at the LHC. In particular, if the upper limit on BR improves by one order of magnitude, a large range of the parameters of the model would be ruled out.
