In supersymmetric models a tree-level neutrino mass could originate from the (weak-scale) superpotential. We propose and examine a realization of that idea, which arises naturally in the framework of a spontaneously broken U(1) R-symmetry.…
We construct an extension of the supersymmetric standard model where both CP symmetry and R-parity are spontaneously broken. We study the electroweak symmetry breaking sector of the model and find minima consistent with the experimental…
We show that in a large class of supersymmetric models with spontaneously broken B-L symmetry, neutron--antineutron oscillations occur at an observable level even though the scale of B-L breaking is very high, v_{B-L} ~ 2 x 10^{16} GeV, as…
Successful leptogenesis within the simplest type I supersymmetric seesaw mechanism requires the lightest of the three right-handed neutrino supermultiplets to be heavier than $\sim10^9$ GeV. Thermal production of such (s)neutrinos requires…
We evaluate the predictions of the left-right symmetry model based on $SU(2)\otimes U(1)$ gauge group with one bidoublet and one doublet Higgs fields on the parity violation, charged leptons and neutrinos masses. Parity violation in the…
The observation of neutrino masses, mixing and the existence of dark matter are amongst the most important signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). In this paper, we propose to extend the SM by a local $L_\mu - L_\tau$ gauge…
We recall the obstacles which seemed, long ago, to prevent one from viewing supersymmetry as a possible fundamental symmetry of Nature. Is spontaneous supersymmetry breaking possible ? Where is the spin-1/2 Goldstone fermion of…
In theories where $B-L$ is a spontaneously broken local symmetry, the cosmological baryon asymmetry can be generated by the out-of-equilibrium decay of heavy Majorana neutrinos. We study this mechanism assuming a similar pattern of mixings…
We consider contributions of R-parity conserving softly broken supersymmetry (SUSY) to neutrinoless double beta ($\znbb$) decay via the (B-L)-violating sneutrino mass term. The latter is a generic ingredient of any weak-scale SUSY model…
It has recently shown that in supersymmetric left-right models with automatic R-parity conservation, the theory below the $W_R$ scale is given by MSSM with massive neutrinos and a pair of doubly charged superfields with masses in the 100…
In the context of the minimal supersymmetric standard model, nonzero neutrino masses and mixing can be generated through renormalizable lepton number (and thus R-parity) violating operators. It is examined whether neutrino mass matrices…
Neutrino mass spectrum is reanalyzed in supersymmetric models with explicit trilinear $R$ violation. Models in this category are argued to provide simultaneous solution to the solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies. It is shown…
The $\mu\nu$SSM is a supersymmetric standard model that solves the $\mu$ problem of the MSSM using the R-parity breaking couplings between the right-handed neutrino superfields and the Higgses in the superpotential, $\lambda_{i} \hat…
We investigate the simplest gauge theory for spontaneous R-parity breaking and its testability at the LHC. This theory based on a local B-L gauge symmetry can be considered as the simplest framework for understanding the origin of the…
The left-right model is a gauge theory of electroweak interactions based on the gauge symmetry SU(2)_R . The main motivations for this model are that it gives an explanation for the parity violation of weak interactions, provides a…
Supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) has two sources of rapid proton decay: (i) R-parity breaking terms and (ii) higher dimensional Planck induced B-violating terms; its extensions to include neutrino masses via the type I seesaw mechanism…
We propose a realistic theory based on the $\mathrm{SU(3)_c \otimes SU(3)_L \otimes SU(3)_R \otimes U(1)_{X}}$ gauge group which requires the number of families to match the number of colors. In the simplest realization neutrino masses…
We review here our study of a supersymmetric left-right model (SLRM). In the model the $R$-parity is spontaneously broken. Phenomenologically novel feature of the model is the occurrance of the doubly charged particles in the Higgs sector,…
We construct realistic supergravity models where supersymmetry breaking arises from the D-terms of an anomalous U(1) gauge symmetry broken at the Planck scale. Effective action for these theories at sub-Planck energies (including higher…
We propose two models based on the $SU(3)_C \times SU(3)_L \times U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry, each incorporating distinct inverse seesaw mechanisms for generating neutrino masses at the radiative level. Therefore, neutrino masses are suppressed…
