More recent results also hint at a non-zero value for the observable S7, raising important...

Heavy neutral leptons (HINLs) provide a minimal and testable origin of neutrino masses and cangenerate the baryon asymmetry through low-scale leptogenesis. Their small active sterile mixinghowever, makes much of the theoretically motivated parameter space inaccessible to existing experimentsWe show that a future high-energy muon facility can operate as a heavy-neutrino factory and muon...

We present a phenomenological study of partonic spin correlations and CP properties in H->gg decay channel at future lepton colliders. We investigate two classes of observables: Lund observable defined based on subjets and four-point energy-energy correlator (E4C) between particles inside two jets. Our results show that the E4C with energy weighted to the power of n = 4 achieves the strongest...
