High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v3

Abstract

Two-loop radiative mechanism, when combined with an U(1)_{L'} symmetry generated by L_e-L_\mu-L_\tau (=L'), is shown to provide an estimate of \Delta m^2_{\odot}/\Delta m^2_{atm} \sim \epsilon m_e/m_\tau, where \epsilon measures the U(1)_{L'}-breaking. Since \Delta m^2_{atm} 3.5x103eV2,wefindthatΔm2\sim 3.5x10^{-3} eV^2, we find that \Delta m^2_{\odot} \simϵx106eV2,whichwillfallintotheallowedregionoftheLOWsolutiontothesolarneutrinoproblemforϵ \epsilon x10^{-6} eV^2, which will fall into the allowed region of the LOW solution to the solar neutrino problem for \epsilon \sim$ 0.1.
