A scenario for leptogenesis at the TeV scale

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2016-09-06 v1

Abstract

We propose a scenario of thermal leptogenesis at the TeV scale in the context of an extension of the Standard Model with 4 generations. We also add one right-handed Majorana neutrino for each generation to generate left handed neutrino masses via see-saw. The r\^{o}le of the fourth lepton doublet is not much different from that of a supersymmetric partner, so the leptogenesis consequences of a four generation scenario are indicators of a more generic picture. We obtain a value for the baryon asymmetry of the Universe in accordance with observations by solving the full set of coupled Boltzmann equations for this model.
