Leptoquarks: Neutrino masses and accelerator phenomenology

Understand

Leptoquark-Higgs interactions induce mixing between leptoquark states with different chiralities once the electro-weak symmetry is broken.

• In such LQ models Majorana neutrino masses are generated at 1-loop order.
• Here we calculate the neutrino mass matrix and explore the constraints on the parameter space enforced by the assumption that LQ-loops explain current neutrino oscillation data.
• LQs will be produced at the LHC, if their masses are at or below the TeV scale.
