Abstract

We interpret the 2 TeV excesses at the LHC in a left-right symmetric model with Higgs doublets and spontaneous DD-parity violation. The light neutrino masses are understood via a linear seesaw, suppressed by a high DD-parity breaking scale, and the heavy neutrinos have a pseudo-Dirac character. In addition, with a suppressed right-handed gauge coupling gR/gL0.6g_R / g_L \approx 0.6 in an SO(10)SO(10) embedding, we can thereby interpret the observed eejjeejj excess at CMS. We show that it can be reconciled with the diboson and dijet excesses within a simplified scenario based on our model. Moreover, we find that the mixing between the light and heavy neutrinos can be potentially large which would induce dominant non-standard contributions to neutrinoless double beta decay via long-range λ\lambda and η\eta neutrino exchange.
