Left-right symmetry: from the LHC to neutrinoless double beta decay

Phys Rev Lett. 2011 Apr 15;106(15):151801. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.106.151801. Epub 2011 Apr 15.

Abstract

The Large Hadron Collider has the potential to probe the scale of left-right symmetry restoration and the associated lepton number violation. Moreover, it offers the hope of measuring the right-handed leptonic mixing matrix. We show how this, together with constraints from lepton flavor violating processes, can be used to make predictions for neutrinoless double beta decay. We illustrate this connection in the case of the type-II seesaw.
