1211.6447 (Tao Han et al.)

Lepton Number Violation and W' Chiral Couplings at the LHC    [PDF]

Tao Han, Ian Lewis, Richard Ruiz, Zong-guo Si
We study the observability for a heavy Majorana neutrino N along with a new charged gauge boson W' at the LHC. We emphasize the complementarity of these two particles in their production and decay to unambiguously determine their properties. We show that the Majorana nature of N can be verified by the lepton-number violating like-sign dilepton process, and by polar and azimuthal angular distributions. The chirality of the W' coupling to leptons and to quarks can be determined by a polar angle distribution in the reconstructed frame and an azimuthal angle distribution.
