Description
The small neutrino masses might be a consequence of the well known seesaw mechanism, which requires new fields as heavy as $10^{14}$ GeV. However, there are alternative explanations. For example neutrino masses might be generated through loops or via high-dimensional operators. In both cases, the mediating particles can have TeV-scale masses, and if so it might be possible to produced them at the LHC.
