We generalize the scalar triplet neutrino mass model, the type II seesaw. Requiring fine-tuning and arbitrarily small parameters to be absent leads to dynamical lepton number breaking at the electroweak scale and a rich LHC phenomenology. A smoking gun signature at the LHC that allows to distinguish our model from the usual type II seesaw scenario is identified. Besides, we discuss other interesting phenomenological aspects of the model such as the presence of a massless Goldstone boson and deviations of standard model Higgs couplings

We propose a new mechanism for generating small neutrino masses which predicts the relation m_ u ~ v^4/M^3, where v is the electroweak scale, rather than the conventional seesaw formula m_ u ~ v^2/M. Such a mass relation is obtained via effective dim ension seven operators LLHH(H*H)/M^3, which arise when an isospin 3/2 Higgs multiplet Phi is introduced along with iso-triplet leptons. The masses of these particles are naturally in the TeV scale. The neutral member of Phi acquires an induced vacuum expectation value and generates neutrino masses, while its triply charged partner provides the smoking gun signal of this scenario. These triply charged bosons can be pair produced at the LHC and the Tevatron, with Phi^{+++} decaying into W^+l^+l^+ or W^+W^+W^+, possibly with displaced vertices. The leptonic decays of Phi^{+++} will help discriminate between normal and inverted hierarchies of neutrino masses. This scenario also allows for raising the standard Higgs boson mass to values in excess of 500 GeV.

In this talk, I present a new mechanism for the generation of neutrino masses via dimension 7 operators: llHH(H*H)/M^3. This leads to new formula for the light neutrino masses, m_ u~v^4/M^3. This is distinct from the usual see-saw formulae: m_ u~v^2/ M. The scale of new physics can naturally be at the TeV scale. Microscopic theory that generated d=7 operator has an isospin 3/2 Higgs multiplet Phi, which contains a triply charged Higgs boson with mass around ~TeV or less. These particles can be produced at the LHC (and possibly at the Tevatron) with distinctive multi-W and multi-lepton final states. For some choice of the parameter space, these particles can also be long-lived with the possibility of displaced vertices, or even escaping the detector. Their leptonic decay modes carry information about the nature of the neutrino mass hierarchy.
Radiatively-driven natural SUSY (RNS) models enjoy electroweak naturalness at the $10%$ level while respecting LHC sparticle and Higgs mass constraints. Gluino and top squark masses can range up to several TeV (with other squarks even heavier) but a set of light Higgsinos are required with mass not too far above $m_hsim 125$ GeV. Within the RNS framework, gluinos dominantly decay via ${tilde g} to t{tilde t}_1^{*}, bar{t}{tilde t}_1 to tbar{t}{widetilde Z}_{1,2}$ or $tbar{b}{widetilde W}_1^-+c.c.$, where the decay products of the higgsino-like ${widetilde W}_1$ and ${widetilde Z}_2$ are very soft. Gluino pair production is, therefore, signalled by events with up to four hard $b$-jets and large ${ ot!!{E_T}}$. We devise a set of cuts to isolate a relatively pure gluino sample at the (high luminosity) LHC and show that in the RNS model with very heavy squarks, the gluino signal will be accessible for $m_{{tilde g}} < 2400 (2800)$ GeV for an integrated luminosity of 300 (3000) fb$^{-1}$. We also show that the measurement of the rate of gluino events in the clean sample mentioned above allows for a determination of $m_{{tilde g}}$ with a statistical precision of $2.5-5%$ (depending on the integrated luminosity and the gluino mass) over the range of gluino masses where a $5sigma$ discovery is possible at the LHC.
We consider theories where the Standard Model (SM) neutrinos acquire masses through the seesaw mechanism at the weak scale. We show that in such a scenario, the requirement that any pre-existing baryon asymmetry, regardless of its origin, not be wash ed out leads to correlations between the pattern of SM neutrino masses and the spectrum of new particles at the weak scale, leading to definite predictions for the LHC. For type I seesaw models with a TeV scale Z coupled to SM neutrinos, we find that for a normal neutrino mass hierarchy, at least one of the right-handed neutrinos must be `electrophobic, decaying with a strong preference into final states with muons and tauons rather than electrons. For inverted or quasi-degenerate mass patterns, on the other hand, we find upper bounds on the mass of at least one right-handed neutrino. In particular, for an inverted mass hierarchy, this bound is 1 TeV, while the corresponding upper limit in the quasi-degenerate case is 300 GeV. Similar results hold in type III seesaw models, albeit with somewhat more stringent bounds. For the Type II seesaw case with a weak scale SU(2) triplet Higgs, we again find that an interesting range of Higgs triplet masses is disallowed by these considerations.
Radiatively-driven natural supersymmetry (RNS) potentially reconciles the Z and Higgs boson masses close to 100 GeV with gluinos and squarks lying beyond the TeV scale. Requiring no large cancellations at the electroweak scale in constructing M_Z=91. 2 GeV while maintaining a light Higgs scalar with m_h 125 GeV implies a sparticle mass spectrum including light higgsinos with mass 100-300 GeV, electroweak gauginos in the 300-1200 GeV range, gluinos at 1-4 TeV and top/bottom squarks in the 1-4 TeV range (probably beyond LHC reach), while first/second generation matter scalars can exist in the 5-30 TeV range (far beyond LHC reach). We investigate several characteristic signals for RNS at LHC14. Gluino pair production yields a reach up to m_{tg} 1.7 TeV for 300 fb^{-1}. Wino pair production -- pptotw_2tz_4 and tw_2tw_2 -- leads to a unique same-sign diboson (SSdB) signature accompanied by modest jet activity from daughter higgsino decays; this signature provides the best reach up to m_{tg} 2.1 TeV within this framework. Wino pair production also leads to final states with (WZto 3ell)+eslt as well as 4ell+eslt which give confirmatory signals up to m_{tg} 1.4 TeV. Directly produced light higgsinos yield a clean, soft trilepton signature (due to very low visible energy release) which can be visible, but only for a not-too-small a tz_2-tz_1 mass gap. The clean SSdB signal -- as well as the distinctive mass shape of the dilepton mass distribution from tz_{2,3}totz_1ellell decays if this is accessible -- will mark the presence of light higgsinos which are necessary for natural SUSY. While an e^+e^- collider operating with sqrt{s} 600 GeV should unequivocally reveal the predicted light higgsinos, the RNS model with m_{1/2}> 1 TeV may elude all LHC14 search strategies even while maintaining a high degree of electroweak naturalness.
