Description

We present three different projects on searches for searches of Heavy Neutral Leptons (also known in the literature as sterile neutrinos, right-handed neutrinos, or simply HNLs) in two different models.

The first project analyzes the sensitivity for parameters in the left-right symmetric model in the form of displaced HNLs in different proposals for lepton colliders: FCC-ee, CEPC, ILC, CLIC, and a muon collider.

Then, in the context of the minimal type-I seesaw, we improve the bounds on HNL parameters from searches in charged lepton flavor violating (cLFV) processes when we consider non-decoupling diagrams, which has been neglected in recent literature.

And finally, we present the bounds on Yukawa couplings of the minimal type-I seesaw that are allowed by tree level unitarity.
