Analysis of excited neutrinos at the CLIC

We analyze the single and pair production of excited neutrinos at the CLIC through the processes $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow ν^{*} \barν$, $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow e^{+}γ^{*} e^{-} \rightarrow e^{+} ν^{*} W^{-}$, and $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow e^{+}γ^{*} γ^{*} e^{-} \rightarrow e^{+} ν^{*} \barν^{*} e^{-}$ ($γ^{*}$ is the Weizsacker-Williams photon). We examine comprehensively the excited neutrino signal and corresponding backgrounds to obtain limits on excited neutrino mass for various values of the integrated luminosity and center-of-mass energy. We show that the obtained bounds are more restricted than current experimental bounds.
