Electroweak precision constraints on the electroweak-scale right-handed neutrino model

A model of electroweak-scale right-handed neutrino (EWνR) model was constructed five years ago in which the right-handed neutrinos are members of mirror fermion weak doublets and where the Majorana masses of the right-handed neutrinos are found to be naturally of the order of the electroweak scale....

Description
Summary:A model of electroweak-scale right-handed neutrino (EWνR) model was constructed five years ago in which the right-handed neutrinos are members of mirror fermion weak doublets and where the Majorana masses of the right-handed neutrinos are found to be naturally of the order of the electroweak scale. These features facilitate their searches at the LHC through signals such as like-sign dilepton events. This model contains, in addition to the mirror quarks and leptons, extra scalars transforming as weak triplets. In this paper, we study the constraints imposed on these additional particles by the electroweak precision parameters S, T, and U. These constraints are crucial in determining the viability of the electroweak νR model and the allowed parameter space needed for a detailed phenomenology of the model.
