'Exotic vector-like pair' of color-triplet scalars
Abstract
We propose a minimal extension of Standard Model, generating a Majorana mass for neutron, connected with a mechanism of Post-Sphaleron Baryogenesis. We consider an `exotic vector-like pair' of color-triplet scalars, an extra Majorana fermion , and a scalar field , giving mass to . The vector-like pair is defined `exotic' because of a peculiar mass term of the color-triplet scalars, violating Baryon number as . A Post-Sphaleron Baryogenesis is realized through -decays into six quarks (antiquarks), or through -decays into three quarks (antiquarks). This model suggests some intriguing B-violating signatures, testable in the next future, in Neutron-Antineutron physics and LHC. We also discuss limits from FCNC. Sterile fermion can also be light as . In this case, the sterile fermion could be (meta)-stable and oscillation can be indirectly generated by two , oscillations, without needing of an effective Majorana mass for neutron. Majorana fermion can be a good candidate for WIMP-like dark matter.
