Baryogenesis via leptogenesis

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We discuss how leptogenesis can explain the observed baryon asymmetry and summarize attempts of testing leptogenesis. We first perform estimates and discuss the main physics, and later outline the techniques that allow to perform precise computations.
