A search for a heavy Majorana neutrino at ATLAS using 4.7 fb-1 of pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV

The discovery of neutrino oscillations provides evidence that the Standard Model neutrinos have mass. Many models generate the mass for the light neutrinos by postulating the existence of heavy neutrinos. This thesis presents the search for a heavy Majorana neutrino decaying into a W boson and a muo...
