Exotic heavy leptons predicted by extended models at the CERN LHC

Abstract: We investigate the production, signatures, and backgrounds of a pair of heavy-exotic charged leptons and a heavy-exotic neutrino in association with the exotic charged lepton in the framework of the vector singlet model, vector doublet model, and fermion-mirror-fermion model, at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. We show that the cross sections for the production of a pair of heavy exotic leptons are competitive with the ones for the single production of exotic leptons.

“…For vectorlike fermions via the gluon fusion mechanism, both single production [5] and pair production [3,4,6] are possible. Because single production has a larger rate than pair production, we consider heavy lepton single production in this work.…”

“…Within the context of the electroweak (EW) gauge symmetry group of the SM, one approach is to include new quarks fields forming vector-like doublets in such a way to evade the problem of having a strong coupling with the Higgs boson. Previous studies show that quarks from these vector-like doublets can be discovered with collisions at the TeV energy scale [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27].…”

“…In the search for extensions of the SM the new heavy leptons play an important role. Many analysis have been done for the production of heavy leptons at future e − e + [2,3,4,5], at hadron [6,7,8] and also at ep colliders [9,10]. The experimental upper bounds for the heavy lepton masses were found to be 44 GeV by OPAL [11], 46 GeV by ALEPH [12] and 90 GeV by H1 [13] Collaborations.…”
