We investigate the search for heavy Majorana neutrinos stemming from a composite model scenario at the upcoming LHC Run II at a center of mass energy of 13 TeV. While previous studies of the composite Majorana neutrino were focussed on gauge interactions via magnetic type transition coupling between ordinary and heavy fermions (with mass $m^*$) here we complement the composite model with contact interactions at the energy scale $Lambda$ and we find that the production cross sections are dominated by such contact interactions by roughly two/three orders of magnitude. This mechanism provides therefore very interesting rates at the prospected luminosities. We study the same sign di-lepton and di-jet signature ($pp to ellell jj$) and perform a fast detector simulation based on Delphes. We compute 3$sigma$ and 5$sigma$ contour plots of the statistical significance in the parameter space ($Lambda,m^*$). We find that the potentially excluded regions at $sqrt{s} =13$ TeV are quite larger than those excluded so far at Run I considering searches with other signatures.

The neutrinophilic two-Higgs-doublet model ($ u$2HDM) provides a natural way to generate tiny neutrino mass from interactions with the new doublet scalar $Phi_ u$ ($H^pm,~H,~A$) and singlet neutrinos $N_R$ of TeV scale. In this paper, we perform deta
iled simulations for the lepton number violating (LNV) signatures at LHC arising from cascade decays of the new scalars and neutrinos with the mass order $m_{N_R}<m_{Phi_ u}$. Under constraints from lepton flavor violating processes and direct collider searches, their decay properties are explored and lead to three types of LNV signatures: $2ell^pm 4j+cancel{E}_T$, $3ell^pm 4j+cancel{E}_T$, and $3ell^pmell^mp 4j$. We find that the same-sign trilepton signature $3ell^pm4j+cancel{E}_T$ is quite unique and is the most promising discovery channel at the high-luminosity LHC. Our analysis also yields the $95%$ C.L. exclusion limits in the plane of the $Phi_ u$ and $N_R$ masses at 13 (14) TeV LHC with an integrated luminosity of 100~(3000)/fb.
A study on the possibility of distinguishing new heavy Majorana neutrino models at LHC energies is presented. The experimental confirmation of standard neutrinos with non-zero mass and the theoretical possibility of lepton number violation find a nat
ural explanation when new heavy Majorana neutrinos exist. These new neutrinos appear in models with new right-handed singlets, in new doublets of some grand unified theories and left-right symmetrical models. It is expected that signals of new particles can be found at the CERN high-energy hadron collider (LHC). We present signatures and distributions that can indicate the theoretical origin of these new particles. The single and pair production of heavy Majorana neutrinos are calculated and the model dependence is discussed. Same-sign dileptons in the final state provide a clear signal for the Majorana nature of heavy neutrinos, since there is lepton number violation. Mass bounds on heavy Majorana neutrinos allowing model discrimination are estimated for three different LHC luminosities.
We discuss whether the behaviour of some hadronic quantities, such as the total cross-section, the ratio of the elastic to the total cross-section, are presently exhibiting the asymptotic behaviour expected at very large energies. We find phenomenolo
gical evidence that at LHC7 there is still space for further evolution.
We study the LHC sensitivity to probe a long-lived heavy neutrino $N$ in the context of $Z$ models. We focus on displaced vertex signatures of $N$ when pair produced via a $Z$, decaying to leptons and jets inside the inner trackers of the LHC experim
ents. We explore the LHC reach with current long-lived particle search strategies for either one or two displaced vertices in association with hadronic tracks or jets. We focus on two well-motivated models, namely, the minimal $U(1)_{B-L}$ scenario and its $U(1)_{X}$ extension. We find that searches for at least one displaced vertex can cover a significant portion of the parameter space, with light-heavy neutrino mixings as low as $|V_{lN}|^2approx 10^{-17}$, and $l=e,mu$ accessible across GeV scale heavy neutrino masses.
We propose a new mechanism producing a non-vanishing lepton number asymmetry, based on decays of heavy Majorana neutrinos. If they are produced out of equilibrium, as occurs in preheating scenario, and are superpositions of mass eigenstates rapidly d
ecaying, their decay rates contains interference terms provided the mass differences $Delta m$ are small compared to widths $Gamma$. The resulting lepton asymmetry, which is the analogue of the time-integrated CP asymmetry in $B^0-bar{B}^0$ system, is found to be proportional to $Delta m/Gamma$.
