TeV Scale Leptogenesis With Heavy Neutrinos

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

Following a baryogenesis scenario proposed by Lazarides, Panagiotakopoulos and Shafi, we show how the observed baryon asymmetry can be explained via resonant leptogenesis in a class of supersymmetric models with an intermediate mass scale M_I<~10^9 GeV. It involves the out of equilibrium decay of heavy (<~M_I) right handed neutrinos at a temperature close to the TeV supersymmetry breaking scale. Such models can also resolve the MSSM mu problem.
