We show that within the left-right symmetric model, lepton number violating decays of the Higgs boson can be discovered at the LHC. The process is due to the mixing of the Higgs boson with the triplet that breaks parity. As a result, the Higgs boson can act as a gateway to the origin of the heavy Majorana neutrino mass. To assess the LHC reach, a detailed collider study of the same-sign dileptons plus jets channel is provided. This process is complementary to the existing nuclear and collider searches for lepton number violation and can probe the scale of parity restoration even beyond other direct searches.
我们表明,在左右对称模型中,希格斯玻色子违反轻子数的衰变可在大型强子对撞机(LHC)上被发现。该过程源于希格斯玻色子与破坏宇称的三重态的混合。因此,希格斯玻色子可成为通往重马约拉纳中微子质量起源的途径。为评估LHC的探测能力,我们提供了对同号双轻子加喷注通道的详细对撞机研究。此过程是对现有针对违反轻子数的核物理和对撞机搜索的补充,并且甚至能在其他直接搜索之外探测宇称恢复的尺度。
