We survey 129 lepton number violating effective operators, consistent with the minimal Standard Model gauge group and particle content, of mass dimension up to and including eleven. Upon requiring that each one radiatively generates the…
The parity solution to the strong CP problem necessarily extends the Standard Model to include the SU$(2)_{\rm R}$ gauge sector and imposes restrictions on the structure of the Yukawa interactions. In this framework, one can consider an…
We discuss lepton number violating processes in the context of long-baseline neutrino oscillations. We summarise and compare neutrino flavour oscillations in quantum mechanics and quantum field theory, both for standard oscillations and for…
There is no guarantee that the violation of lepton number, assuming it exists, will primarily manifest itself in neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$). Lepton-number violation and lepton-flavor violation may be related, and…
We study lepton-number-violating interactions at dimension seven in the Standard Model effective field theory that contribute to the meson decays $B \to K \nu \nu$ and $K \to \pi \nu \nu$. Such interactions could washout the baryon…
Observation of lepton number violation would represent a groundbreaking discovery with profound consequences for fundamental physics and as such, it has motivated an extensive experimental program searching for neutrinoless double beta…
Motivated by searches for $0\nu\beta\beta$ decay in nuclear experiments and collider probes of lepton number violation at dimension $d\geq7$, we investigate the sensitivity to the $d=5$ Weinberg operator using the non-resonant signature…
In this report we discuss the main theories to understand the origin of baryon and lepton number violation in physics beyond the Standard Model. We present the theoretical predictions for rare processes such as neutrinoless double beta…
We show that lepton number violating muon decays, \mu^+ -> e^+ + \nu_e-bar + \nu_i-bar (i=e, \mu or \tau), can consistently explain the neutrino anomaly reported by the LSND experiment. Two effective operators in the Standard Model are…
We investigate neutrino mass generation scenarios where the lepton number breaking new physics couples only to the Standard Model (SM) right-handed charged lepton chirality. The lowest-order lepton number violating effective operator which…
Same-sign lepton colliders offer a promising environment to probe lepton number violation. We study processes that change lepton number by two units in the context of Majorana heavy neutral leptons and neutrinophilic scalars at…
It is usually believed that the observation of the neutrino-antineutrino (${\nu}$-$\bar{\nu}$) oscillations is almost impossible since the oscillation probabilities are expected to be greatly suppressed by the square of tiny ratio of…
Below the electroweak scale, new physics that violates lepton number in two units ($\Delta L = 2$) and is mediated by heavy particle exchange can be parameterized by a dimension-9 low-energy effective Lagrangian. Operators in this…
We discuss the prospects of studying lepton number violating processes in order to identify Majorana neutrinos from low scale seesaw mechanisms at lepton-proton colliders. In particular, we consider the scenarios of colliding electrons with…
We consider four lepton-number violating (\lv) processes: (a) neutrinoless double-beta decay (0\nu\beta\beta), (b) Delta L = 2 tau decays, (c) Delta L = 2 rare meson decays and (d) nuclear muon-positron conversion. In the absence of exotic…
The possible discovery of proton decay, neutron-antineutron oscillation, neutrinoless beta decay in low energy experiments, and exotic signals related to the violation of the baryon and lepton numbers at collider experiments will change our…
Mixing between bosons that transform differently under the standard model gauge group, but identically under its unbroken subgroup, can induce interactions that violate the total lepton number. We discuss four-fermion operators that mediate…
Proton decay experiments typically constrain baryon number violation to the scale of grand unified theories. From a phenomenological point of view, this makes direct probing of the associated new resonances, such as the X and Y bosons, out…
The experimental observation of lepton-number violating processes would unambiguously indicate the Majorana nature of neutrinos. Various $\Delta L$ = 2 processes for pseudoscalar meson $M_1$ decays to another pseudoscalar meson $M_2$ and…
The only possible doubly-charged scalar decays into two Standard Model particles are into pairs of same-sign charged leptons, H$^{\pm\pm}\rightarrow {l}^\pm {l}^\pm, {l} = e, \mu, \tau$, or gauge bosons, H$^{\pm\pm}\rightarrow W^\pm W^\pm$;…
