In this work, we present a scotogenic model, where the neutrino mass is generated at one-loop diagrams. The standard model (SM) is extended by three singlet Majorana fermions and two inert scalar doublets instead of one doublet as in the…
By extending the minimal scotogenic model with a spontaneously broken global symmetry $U(1)'$ and a preserved $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry, we build a seesaw model for generating neutrino masses at three-loop level. The new particles have masses…
The Dirac Scotogenic model provides an elegant mechanism for generating small Dirac neutrino masses at the one-loop level. A single abelian discrete $Z_{6}$ symmetry simultaneously protects the ``Diracness'' of the neutrinos and the…
In this work, we study a scotogenic extension of the Standard Model featuring two inert scalar doublets and three singlet Majorana fermions, where neutrino masses are generated radiatively at one loop. The lightest among the Majorana…
We present a minimal sub-GeV thermal Dark Matter (DM) model where the DM primarily interacts with neutrinos and participates in neutrino mass generation through quantum loop corrections at one-loop level. We discuss the challenges in…
We study the connection between dark matter (DM) and neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay in a scotogenic model with hybrid texture in the neutrino mass matrix. Characteristically, the framework allows to write all the non-zero…
A long time ago (in 2014), in galaxies and galaxy clusters far, far away, several groups have reported hints for a yet unidentified line in astrophysical X-ray signals at an energy of 3.5\,keV. While it is not unlikely that this line is…
We consider the implications of a shared production mechanism between the baryon asymmetry of the universe and the relic abundance of dark matter, that does not result in matching asymmetries. We present a simple model within a two sector…
Dark matter particles may decay, emitting photons. Drawing on the EAGLE family of hydrodynamic simulations of galaxy formation -- including the APOSTLE and C-EAGLE simulations -- we assess the systematic uncertainties and scatter on the…
Radiative Dirac neutrino masses and their mixing are linked to dark matter through the non-Abelian discrete symmetry $A_5$ of the 4-dimensional pentatope, softly broken to $A_4$ of the 3-dimensional tetrahedron. This unifying understanding…
The unifiable supersymmetric left-right model where the neutral fermion $n$ in the $SU(2)_R$ doublet $(n,e)_R$ is a dark-matter candidate, is shown to have the requisite particle content for the neutrino $\nu$ in the $SU(2)_L$ doublet…
The positron anomaly recently reported by the cosmic-ray measurements suggests that, if explained by the decay of dark matter particle, the decay source is closely linked up with the leptonic sector of the standard model. It is observed…
We study a simple extension of the standard model to simultaneously explain neutrino masses, dark matter and the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe. In our model, the baryon asymmetry is achieved by the leptogenesis mechanism,…
Context. Recent findings of line emission at 3.5 keV in both individual and stacked X-ray spectra of galaxy clusters have been speculated to have dark matter origin. Aims. If the origin is indeed dark matter, the emission line is expected…
In this paper, we propose a scotogenic model of neutrino masses with flavor-dependent $U(1)_{B-3L_\alpha}(\alpha=e, \mu, \tau)$ gauge symmetry, in which neutrinos are generated at one-loop level and a fermion dark matter is naturally…
We study a three loop induced radiative neutrino model with global $U(1)$ symmetry at TeV scale, in which we consider two component dark matter particles. We discuss the possibility to explain the X-ray line signal at about 3.55 keV…
We present radiative one-loop neutrino mass model with hypercharge zero scalar triplet in conjunction with another charged singlet scalar and an additional vectorlike lepton doublet. We study three variants of this mass model: the first one…
We argue that the higher weak isospin $SU(3)_L$ manifestly unifies dark matter and normal matter in its isomultiplets for which dark matter carries a conserved dark charge while normal matter does not. The resultant gauge symmetry is given…
We present a Majorana scotogenic-like loop framework in which neutrino mass generation and dark matter stability are intrinsically connected to the breaking of the discrete flavor symmetry $A_4$. This breaking leads to the emergence of the…
We propose a class of models providing an explanation of the origin of light neutrino masses, the baryon asymmetry of the Universe via leptogenesis and offering viable dark matter candidates. In these models the Majorana masses of the…
