Abstract
We have recently proposed a simple SU(5) theory with an adjoint fermionic multiplet on top of the usual minimal spectrum. This leads to the hybrid scenario of both type I and type III seesaw and it predicts the existence of the fermionic SU(2) triplet between 100 GeV and 1 TeV for a conventional grand unified theory scale of about , with main decays into () and leptons, correlated through Dirac Yukawa couplings, and lifetimes shorter than about . These decays are lepton number violating and they offer an exciting signature of dilepton events together with 4 jets at future () colliders. Increasing the triplet mass endangers the proton stability and so the seesaw mechanism could be directly testable at LHC.
