Neutrinos -- amongst the lightest known particles -- can mediate a force driving dark matter self-interaction and the small scale structure of the universe. We explore such a possibility in the simplest neutrino portal dark sector model…
The minimal standard electroweak model yields approximately half the observed value of the $K_L$-$K_S$ mass difference. Antisymmetric tensor fields incorporated into the standard model can provide the rest $0.5\times(\Delta m_{LS})_{\exp}$.…
In this publication we present an extension of the Standard Model within the framework of Connes' noncommutative geometry [1]. The model presented here is based on a minimal spectral triple [7] which contains the Standard Model particles,…
Qualitative implications of electroweak theory are reconsidered on the assumption that the unique source of fermion rest mass is self-interaction via coupling to gauge fields. This implies small but nonzero mass for neutrinos, and suggests…
The hypothesis is explored that fermion rest mass is due entirely to self-interaction via virtual excitation of gauge bosons. This requires revising the standard model to treat both chiral projections of a fermion field as SU(2) doublets,…
We propose a gauged $B-L$ extension of the standard model (SM) where light neutrinos are of Dirac type by virtue of tiny Yukawa couplings with the SM Higgs. To achieve leptogenesis, we include additional heavy Majorana fermions without…
We calculate zero-temperature correlation functions for a model of 2D interacting electrons with short-range interactions and a square Fermi surface. The model was arrived at by mapping electronic states near a square Fermi surface with…
The impact of new physics on the interactions of neutrinos with other particles can be parametrized by a set of effective four-fermion operators called non-standard neutrino interactions (NSIs). This NSI framework is useful for studying the…
If neutrinos have masses, why are they so tiny? Are these masses of the Dirac type or of the Majorana type? We are already familiar with the mechanism of how to obtain a tiny Majorana neutrino mass by the famous see-saw mechanism. The…
In the minimal Standard Model (MSM) with three generations of quarks and leptons, neutrinos can have tiny charges consistent with electromagnetic gauge invariance. There are three types of non-standard electric charge, given by $Q_{st} +…
Taken as a classification paradigm completing the standard model, a new compact form of the SU(2/1) supergroup explains many mysterious properties of the weak interactions: the maximal breaking of parity, the fractional charges of the…
A consistent strategy for the subtraction of the divergences in the nonlinearly realized Electroweak Model in the loop expansion is presented. No Higgs field enters into the perturbative spectrum. The local functional equation (LFE),…
The Zee model for Dirac neutrinos is one of the simplest models featuring one-loop Dirac neutrino masses. The interactions between the new scalars (two singly-charged fields) and neutrinos induce general neutrino interactions (GNI) which,…
The standard model of quarks and leptons is extended to connect three outstanding issues in particle physics and astrophysics: (1) the absence of strong CP nonconservation, (2) the existence of dark matter, and (3) the mechanism of nonzero…
We investigate neutrino-nucleus interactions at energies around 1 GeV. In this regime, the main contributions to the cross sections come from quasi-elastic and $\Delta$ production processes. Our formalism, based on the Impulse Approximation…
The problem of a calculation of parameters of the Standard Model is considered in the framework of the compensation approach. Conditions for a spontaneous generation of effective interactions of fundamental fields are shown to lead to sets…
By representing the electroweak gauge symmetry group $SU(2) \times U(1)$ by a hypertorus $S_2 \times S_1$, the electroweak mixing angle and the fine structure constant are predicted. By representing neutrinos as oscillating spheroid…
A weak-doublet with hypercharge $-3/2$ is one of only a handful of fermions which has a renormalisable interaction with Standard Model fields. This should make it worthy of attention, but it has thus far received little consideration in the…
We study the neutrino sector in a minimal $SU(3)_L\times U(1)_X$ model, in which its mass is generated at one-loop level with the charged lepton mass, and hence there exists a strong correlation between the charged-lepton mass and the…
Tetrads are introduced in order to study the relationship between tetrad gauge states of spacetime and particle interactions, specially in weak processes at low energy. Through several examples like inverse Muon decay, elastic…
