In a previous paper, we initiated the study of signals at the LHC for the associated $\\sim$ TeV mass SM singlet neutrinos, within a canonical model of $SU(2)_L \\times SU(2)_R \\times U(1)_{ B - L }$ (LR) symmetry in the composite sector, as motivated by consistency with the EW precision tests. Here, we investigate LHC signals in a different region of parameter space for the same model, where production of singlet neutrinos can occur from particles beyond those in usual LR models. Specifically, we assume that composite $(B - L)$ gauge boson is lighter than all the others in the EW sector. We show that the composite $(B - L)$ gauge boson can acquire a significant coupling to light quarks simply via mixing with elementary hypercharge gauge boson. Thus, the singlet neutrino can be pair-produced via decays of $(B - L)$ gauge boson, without a charged current counterpart. Furthermore, there is no decay for $(B - L)$ gauge boson directly into dibosons, unlike for the usual case of $W_R^{ \\pm }$ and $Z^{ \\prime }$. Independently of the above extension of the EW sector, we analyze production of singlet neutrinos in decays of composite partners of $SU(2)_L$ doublet leptons, which are absent in the usual LR models. In turn, these doublet leptons can be produced in composite $W_L$ decays. We show that $4 - 5 \\sigma$ signal can be achieved for both cases described above for the following spectrum with 3000 fb$^{-1}$ luminosity: $2 - 2.5$ TeV composite gauge bosons, $1$ TeV composite doublet lepton (for the second case) and $500 - 750$ GeV singlet neutrino.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-03-22T17:37:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "gauge boson", "natural warped seesaw", "lhc signals", "extra dimensional/composite higgs framework", "doublet lepton" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 45, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
