Neutrino Masses and Leptogenesis with Heavy Higgs Triplets

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v2

Abstract

A simple and economical extension of the minimal standard electroweak gauge model (without right-handed neutrinos) by the addition of two heavy Higgs scalar triplets would have two significant advantages. \underline {Naturally} small Majorana neutrino masses would become possible, as well as leptogenesis in the early universe which gets converted at the electroweak phase transition into the present observed baryon asymmetry.
