Long lived light scalars as probe of low scale seesaw models

We point out that in generic TeV scale seesaw models for neutrino masses with local B–L symmetry breaking, there is a phenomenologically allowed range of parameters where the Higgs field responsible for B–L symmetry breaking leaves a physical real scalar field with mass around GeV scale. This partic...
