Constraints on exotic lepton doublets with minimal coupling to the standard model

We investigate the consequences of introducing a set of exotic doublet leptons which couple to the standard model leptons in a minimal way. Through these additional gauge invariant and renormalizable coupling terms, new sources of tree-level flavor changing currents are induced via mixing. In this work, we derive constraints on the parameters that govern the couplings to the exotic doublets by invoking the current low-energy experimental data on processes such as leptonic Z decays, $\ell \rightarrow 3 \ell'$, $\ell \rightarrow \ell' γ$, and $μ$-$e$ conversion in atomic nuclei. Moreover, we have analyzed the role these doublets play on the lepton anomalous magnetic moments, and found that their contribution is negligible.
