Doubly Charged Lepton Search Potential of the FCC-Based Energy-Frontier Electron-Proton Colliders

We search for the doubly charged leptons () predicted in composite models including extended weak isospin multiplets, namely, and , at the Future Circular Collider- (FCC-) based energy-frontier electron-proton colliders with the center-of-mass energies of  TeV,  TeV, and  TeV, respectively. We deal with the process, calculate the production cross sections, and give the normalized transverse momentum and pseudorapidity distributions of final-state electron to obtain the kinematical cuts for the discovery. We show the statistical significance (SS) of the expected signal yield as a function of doubly charged lepton mass ( plots) to attain the doubly charged lepton discovery mass limits for both the and . It is obtained that discovery mass limits on the mass of doubly charged lepton for () are TeV, TeV, and TeV for  TeV,  TeV, and  TeV, respectively.
