Nested Radiative Seesaw Masses for Dark Matter and Neutrinos

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2022-11-30 v1

Abstract

The scotogenic model of neutrino mass is modified so that the dark Majorana fermion singlet SS which makes the neutrino massive is itself generated in one loop. This is accomplished by having Z6Z_6 lepton symmetry softly broken to Z2Z_2 in the scalar sector by a unique quadratic term. It is shown that SS is a viable freeze-in dark-matter candidate through Higgs decay.
