Right-handed neutrinos: dark matter, lepton flavor violation and leptonic collider searches

Abstract: We examine lepton flavor violating (LFV) interactions for heavy right-handed neutrinos that exist in most of the standard model extensions that address dark matter (DM) and neutrino mass at the loop level. In order to probe the collider effect of these LFV interactions, we impose the assumption that the model parameters give the right values of the DM relic density and fulfill the constraints from the LFV processes $\ell_{\alpha}\rightarrow\ell_{\beta}\gamma$ and $\ell_{\alpha}\rightarrow3\ell_{\beta}$. We also investigate the possibility of probing these interactions, and hence the right-handed neutrino, at leptonic colliders through different final state signatures.
