Z's and sterile neutrinos from heterotic string models: exploring Z′ mass exclusion limits

We investigate the impact of sterile neutrinos on the decay rate of extra Z's with mass in the TeV range in heterotic string derived models. We explore the impact of sterile neutrinos on the current Z' mass exclusion limits at the LHC, and how these bounds change when the parameter space of this specific class of models is modified.

Automated summary

This study investigates the impact of sterile neutrinos on the decay rate of extra Z's with mass in the TeV range in heterotic string derived models. It explores the effect of sterile neutrinos on the current exclusion limits of Z' mass at the LHC, and how these bounds change when the parameter space of this specific class of models is modified.
