Abstract

Smallness of neutrino masses can be explained by introducing a tiny vacuum expectation value of an extra-Higgs doublet which couples to right-handed neutrinos (NRN_R). This situation is naturally realized in ν\nu-Two Higgs Doublet Model (ν\nuTHDM), where a TeV-scale seesaw mechanism can work well. We investigate observable phenomenology of ν\nuTHDM at LHC and ILC experiments. Charged Higgs boson (H±H^\pm) in ν\nuTHDM is almost originated from the extra-Higgs doublet and its coupling strength to neutrinos are not small. Then this model induces rich phenomenology at the LHC, for example, when mH±<MNm_{H^\pm}^{} < M_N, observable charged tracks can be induced from long lived charged Higgs. On the other hand, when mH±>MNm_{H^\pm}^{} > M_N, right-handed neutrinos can be long-lived, and secondary vertices may be tagged at the LHC. The ν\nuTHDM also predicts observable lepton number violating process at the ILC.
