Radiative Scaling Neutrino Mass with $A_4$ Symmetry

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2013-06-06 v1

Abstract

A new idea for neutrino mass was proposed recently, where its smallness is not due to the seesaw mechanism, i.e. not inversely proportional to some large mass scale. It comes from a one-loop mechanism with dark matter in the loop consisting of singlet Majorana fermions NiN_i with masses of order 10 keV and neutrino masses are scaled down from them by factors of about 10510^{-5}. We discuss how this model may be implemented with the non-Abelian discrete symmetry A4A_4 for neutrino mixing, and consider the phenomenology of NiN_i as well as the extra scalar doublet (η+,η0)(\eta^+,\eta^0).
