In the present paper, we investigate the unitarity bounds on this scenario. We calculate the s-wave projected amplitudes for two-body elastic scatterings of charged leptons and photons mediated by G at high energies for all possible initial and final helicity states. By imposing the condition of the perturbative unitarity, we obtain the analytic constraints on the charged-lepton-G and photon-G couplings.

Revisiting Trimaximal TM2 mixing in two A4 modular symmetries

In this paper, we discuss a minimal lepton flavor model with two modular [Formula: see text] symmetries, one acting on neutrinos and the other acting on charged leptons. Two corresponding moduli fields are restricted at stabilizers. To avoid vanishing or degenerate lepton masses, the stabilizer in the charged lepton sector always preserves a [Formula: see text] symmetry, and that in the neutrino preserves a [Formula: see text] symmetry. By scanning all viable stabilizers, a unique Trimaximal TM2 mixing is predicted. However, the prediction of the lightest neutrino mass and the mass parameter in neutrinoless double beta decay, as well as two Majorana phases, are different and classified into three cases.

Constraining flavoured leptoquarks with LHC and LFV

We consider the framework of flavoured leptoquarks, in models with scalar or vector leptoquarks, and look for constraints to the parameter space of these models. Using primarily direct searches at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and precision processes that probe Lepton Flavour Violation (LFV), we present lower bounds for the masses of the leptoquarks in different flavoured scenarios. We classify the models according to the specific leptoquark, distinguished with respect to their couplings to charged leptons (lepton isolation, two-columned patterns) and in scenarios with specific hierarchies in the couplings (hierarchical, 2-3 democratic, and flipped).

Heavy neutral lepton corrections to SM boson decays: lepton flavour universality violation in low-scale seesaw realisations

We study lepton flavour universality violation in SM boson decays in low-scale seesaw models of neutrino mass generation, also addressing other electroweak precision observables. We compute the electroweak next-to-leading order corrections, which turn out to be important – notably in the case of the invisible decay width of the Z boson, for which the corrections can be as large as the current experimental uncertainty. As a well-motivated illustrative study case, we choose a realisation of the Inverse Seesaw mechanism, and discuss the complementary role of lepton flavour conserving, lepton flavour violating and precision observables, both in constraining and in probing such models of neutrino mass generation. Our findings suggest that invisible Z decays are especially important, potentially at the origin of the most stringent constraints for certain regimes of the Inverse Seesaw (while complying with charge lepton flavour violation and other electroweak precision tests). We also discuss the probing power of the considered observables in view of the expected improvement in experimental precision at FCC-ee.

Neutrino oscillations as a single Feynman diagram

We propose an approach to neutrino oscillations in vacuum, based on quantum field theory (QFT). The neutrino emission and detection are identified with the charged-current vertices of a single second-order Feynman diagram for the underlying process, enclosing neutrino propagation between these two points. The key point of the presented approach is the definition of the space-time setup typical for neutrino oscillation experiments, implying macroscopically large but finite volumes of the source and detector separated by a sufficiently large distance L. We derive an L-dependent master formula for the charged lepton production rate, which provides the QFT basis for the analysis of neutrino oscillations. This formula depends on the underlying process and is not reducible to the conventional approach resorting to the concept of neutrino oscillation probability, which originates from non-relativistic quantum mechanics. We demonstrate that for some particular choice of the underlying process the derived master formula approximately coincides with the conventional one under some assumptions. In support to presented approach we show that it provides the QFT framework not only for neutrino–neutrino but also neutrino-antineutrino oscillations. It is also argued that the proposed formalism allows us to consistently incorporate medium effects, when neutrinos oscillate in dense matter.

Fatjet signatures of heavy neutrinos and heavy leptons in a left-right model with universal seesaw at the HL-LHC

We perform a collider search for fatjet signals originating from boosted heavy neutral and charged leptons with masses between a few hundred GeV to a TeV. These heavy leptons originate from the decay of heavy gauge bosons with masses above 4 TeV in a left-right symmetric extension of the Standard Model (SM), which considers a universal seesaw mechanism for the generation of all the SM fermion masses. The fatjet signals arise naturally in this model due to the presence of heavy seesaw partners of the SM fermions which decay to SM gauge bosons carrying large boosts. We employ substructure based variables lepton sub-jet fraction (LSF) and lepton mass drop (LMD) together with kinematic variables of fatjets to look for fatjet signals associated with non-isolated leptons. These variables help in reducing the SM backgrounds while retaining enough statistics for signal events, which leads to a robust discovery potential at the high-luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC).

Alternative 3-3-1 models with exotic electric charges

We report the most general classification of 3-3-1 models with β=3 . We found several solutions where anomaly cancellation occurs among fermions of different families. These solutions are particularly interesting as they generate non-universal heavy neutral vector bosons. Non-universality in the standard model fermion charges under an additional gauge group generates charged lepton flavor violation and flavor changing neutral currents; we discuss under what conditions the new models can evade constraints coming from these processes. In addition, we also report the Large Hadron Collider~(LHC) constraints.

Neutrino phenomenology in a model with generalized CP symmetry within type-I seesaw framework

We investigate the consequences of generalized CP (GCP) symmetry within the context of the two Higgs doublet model (2HDM), specifically focusing on the lepton sector. Utilizing the type-I seesaw framework, we study an intriguing connection between the Dirac Yukawa couplings originating from both Higgs fields, leading to a reduction in the number of independent Yukawa couplings and simplifying the scalar and Yukawa sectors when compared to the general 2HDM. The constraints coming from CP symmetry of class three (CP3) results in two right-handed neutrinos having equal masses and leads to a diagonal right-handed Majorana neutrino mass matrix. Notably, CP symmetry experiences a soft breaking due to the phase associated with the vacuum expectation value of the second Higgs doublet. The model aligns well with observed charged lepton masses and neutrino oscillation data, explaining both masses and mixing angles, and yields distinct predictions for normal and inverted neutrino mass hierarchies. It features a novel interplay between atmospheric mixing angle θ23 and neutrino mass hierarchy: The angle θ23 is below maximal for the normal hierarchy and above maximal for inverted hierarchy. Another interesting feature of the model is inherent CP violation for the inverted hierarchy. Published by the American Physical Society 2024

The majoron coupling to charged leptons

The particle spectrum of all Majorana neutrino mass models with spontaneous violation of global lepton number include a Goldstone boson, the so-called majoron. The presence of this massless pseudoscalar changes the phenomenology dramatically. In this work we derive general analytical expressions for the 1-loop coupling of the majoron to charged leptons. These can be applied to any model featuring a majoron that have a clear hierarchy of energy scales, required for an expansion in powers of the low-energy scale to be valid. We show how to use our general results by applying them to some example models, finding full agreement with previous results in several popular scenarios and deriving novel ones in other setups.

Can we explain cosmic birefringence without a new light field beyond Standard Model?

The recent analysis of the Planck 2018 polarization data shows a nonzero isotropic cosmic birefringence (ICB) that is not explained within the ΛCDM paradigm. We then explore the question of whether the nonzero ICB is interpreted by the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT), or at the energy scales of the cosmic microwave background, the low-energy EFT (LEFT) whose dynamical degrees of freedom are five SM quarks and all neutral and charged leptons. Our systematic study reveals that any operator in the EFT on a cosmological background would not give the reported ICB angle, which is observationally consistent with frequency independence. In particular, we estimate the size of the ICB angle generated by the effect that the cosmic microwave background photons travel through the medium of the cosmic neutrino background with parity-violating neutrino-photon interactions and find that it would be too small to explain the data. If the reported ICB angle should be confirmed, then our result would indicate the existence of a new particle that is lighter than the electroweak scale and feebly interacting with the SM particles.

Quantum corrections and the minimal Yukawa sector of SU(5)

It is well known that the SU(5) grand unified theory, with the standard model quarks and leptons unified in 5¯ and 10 and the electroweak Higgs doublet residing in five-dimensional representations, leads to the relation Yd=YeT between the Yukawa couplings of the down-type quarks and the charged leptons. We show that this degeneracy can be lifted in a phenomenologically viable way when quantum corrections to the tree-level matching conditions are taken into account in the presence of one or more copies of gauge singlet fermions. The one-loop threshold corrections arising from heavy leptoquark scalar and vector bosons, already present in the minimal model, and heavy singlet fermions can lead to realistic Yukawa couplings, provided their masses differ by at least 2 orders of magnitude. The latter can also lead to a realistic light neutrino mass spectrum through the type I seesaw mechanism if the color partner of the Higgs stays close to the Planck scale. Most importantly, our findings demonstrate the viability of the simplest Yukawa sector when quantum corrections are considered and sizable threshold effects are present.

Differential cross-section measurements of the production of four charged leptons in association with two jets using the ATLAS detector

Differential cross-sections are measured for the production of four charged leptons in association with two jets. These measurements are sensitive to final states in which the jets are produced via the strong interaction as well as to the purely-electroweak vector boson scattering process. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collision data collected by ATLAS at sqrt{s} = 13 TeV and with an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1. The data are corrected for the effects of detector inefficiency and resolution and are compared to state-of-the-art Monte Carlo event generator predictions. The differential cross-sections are used to search for anomalous weak-boson self-interactions that are induced by dimension-six and dimension-eight operators in Standard Model effective field theory.

Computation of the masses of the elementary particles

An approach to gauge theory in the context of locally conformally flat space–time is described. It is discussed how there are a number of natural principal bundles associated with any given locally conformally flat space–time X. The simplest of these principal bundles is the bundle PX(G) with structure group G = U(2, 2). An 11-dimensional bundle Q with structure group a certain seven-dimensional group K is constructed by a method involving a reduction of structure group for the bundle PX(G). It is shown how the gauge groups U(1), SU(2), and SU(3) can be derived from the geometry of locally conformally flat space–time. Fock spaces of multiparticle states for the fields of the standard model are constructed in the context of bundles with these groups as structure groups. Scattering and other particle interaction processes are defined in terms of linear maps between multiparticle state spaces. A technique for computing analytically and/or computationally the masses of the elementary particles is described. This method involves the computation of a certain quantity called the integral mass spectrum for a given family of particles and then the masses of the particles in the family are determined to be the locations of the peaks of the integral mass spectrum. The method is applied successfully in the electroweak sector to the cases of the charged leptons, μ and τ, and the Z0 particle.

New physics hints from τ scalar interactions and (g − 2) e,μ

We consider a flavour conserving two Higgs doublet model that consists of a type I (or X) quark sector and a generalized lepton sector where the Yukawa couplings of the charged leptons to the new scalars are not proportional to the lepton masses. The model, previously proposed to solve both muon and electron g − 2 anomalies simultaneously, is also capable to accommodate the ATLAS excess in pp → S → τ + τ − with gluon–gluon fusion production in the invariant mass range [0.2; 0.6] TeV, including all relevant low and high energy constraints. The excess is reproduced taking into account the new contributions from the scalar H, the pseudoscalar A, or both. In particular, detailed numerical analyses favoured the solution with a significant hierarchy among the vevs of the two Higgs doublets, t β ∼ 10, and light neutral scalars satisfying m A > m H with sizable couplings to τ leptons. In this region of the parameter space, the muon g − 2 anomaly receives one and two-loop (Barr-Zee) contributions of similar size, while the electron anomaly is explained at two loops. An analogous ATLAS excess in b-associated production and the CMS excess in ditop production are also studied. Further New Physics prospects concerning the anomalous magnetic moment of the τ lepton and the implications of the CDF M W measurement on the final results are discussed.

Phenomenological profile of scotogenic fermionic dark matter

We consider the possibility that neutrino masses arise from the exchange of dark matter states. We examine in detail the phenomenology of fermionic dark matter in the singlet-triplet scotogenic model. We explore the case of singlet-like fermionic dark matter, taking into account all coannihilation effects relevant for determining its relic abundance, such as fermion-fermion and scalar-fermion coannihilation. Although this in principle allows for dark matter below 60 GeV, the latter is in conflict with charged lepton flavour violation (cLFV) and/or collider physics constraints. We examine the prospects for direct dark matter detection in upcoming experiments up to 10 TeV. Fermion-scalar coannihilation is needed to obtain viable fermionic dark matter in the 60-100 GeV mass range. Fermion-fermion and fermion-scalar coannihilation play complementary roles in different parameter regions above 100 GeV.
