From Higgs physics to lepton flavour violation: current bounds and future prospects for vector-like lepton models

Le résumé fourni par la source

We present a comprehensive phenomenological study of a class of six vector-like lepton models with seesaw-like mass contributions and strong modifications to Higgs and lepton phenomenology. We focus on lepton flavour conserving and violating observables across all lepton generations and collider observables like $Z$ and Higgs decays. In light of the recent progress at the LHC and precision measurements such as muon $g-2$, as well as in anticipation of upcoming experiments like MEGII, Mu2e/COMET, Mu3e, Belle II and at the HL-LHC, we systematically survey the viable parameter space and identify patterns and correlations. The considered class of models gives rise to a rich and testable phenomenology with robust and complementary probes that allow to distinguish between models in the coming experimental era.
