A future high-luminosity $Z$-factory has the potential to investigate lepton flavour violation. Rare decays such as $Z to ell_1^mp ell_2^pm$ can be complementary to low-energy (high-intensity) observables of lepton flavour violation. Here we consider two extensions of the Standard Model which add to its particle content one or more sterile neutrinos. We address the impact of the sterile fermions on lepton flavour violating $Z$ decays, focusing on potential searches at FCC-ee (TLEP), and taking into account experimental and observational constraints. We show that sterile neutrinos can give rise to contributions to BR($Z to ell_1^mp ell_2^pm$) within reach of the FCC-ee. We discuss the complementarity between a high-luminosity $Z$-factory and low-energy charged lepton flavour violation facilities.
We study the optimization of a green-field, two-baseline reactor experiment with respect to the sensitivity for electron antineutrino disappearance in search of a light sterile neutrino. We consider both commercial and research reactors and identify
Neutrino physics is nowadays receiving more and more attention as a possible source of information for the long-standing problem of new physics beyond the Standard Model. The recent measurement of the mixing angle $theta_{13}$ in the standard mixing
For a long time there were 3 main experimental indications in favor of the existence of sterile neutrinos: $bar{ u_e}$ appearance in the $bar{ u_mu}$ beam in the LSND experiment, $bar{ u_e}$ flux deficit in comparison with theoretical expectations in
The IceCube neutrino telescope at the South Pole has measured the atmospheric muon neutrino spectrum as a function of zenith angle and energy in the approximate 320 GeV to 20 TeV range, to search for the oscillation signatures of light sterile neutri
We study the potential of the CNGS beam in constraining the parameter space of a model with one sterile neutrino separated from three active ones by an $mathcal{O}(eVq)$ mass-squared difference, $Dmq_Sbl$. We perform our analysis using the OPERA dete
