Abstract

In this talk, we present the results of the complete one-loop matching of the seesaw model onto its low-energy effective theory by integrating out three right-handed neutrinos at the one-loop level. We find that there are 31 independent dimension-6 (dim-6) operators (barring flavor structures and Hermitian conjugates) in the Warsaw basis, and the standard-model couplings and the Wilson coefficient of the Weinberg operator acquire threshold corrections at the one-loop level. The complete Lagrangian up to dim-6 at the one-loop level is derived, which is indispensable for consistent explorations of the impact of heavy right-handed neutrinos at low energies.
