-The mixing matrix elements V''lk'' parametrize the mixing between the (active) lepton flavor eigenstate ''l'' and the heavy mass eigenstate ''N''k that corresponds to mass mNk.
-The precise values of V''lk'' are model dependent and, in principle, are coupled to the mass and widths of the heavy neutrinos. Therefore, some care by the user is required. However, the lepton number- and flavor-violating interactions of the Lagrangian allow for modeling of the Type I, Inverse, and Linear seesaw mechanisms at both lepton, hadron, and lepto-hadron colliders.
+Neutrino masses (mNk) and mixing parameters (Vlk) between heavy mass eigenstate and (active) flavor eigenstates are taken to be independent, phenomenological parameters. Mixing parameters (VeNk, VmuNk, VtaNk) are taken to be real (no CP Violation). This allows for maximum flexibility and model independence when calculating rates. Therefore, some care by the user is required.
