We consider a U(1)' gauge symmetry acting on three generations of right-handed neutrinos. The U(1)' symmetry is broken at the TeV scale and its remnant discrete symmetry makes one of the right-handed neutrinos stable. As a natural…
We show that a conformal extension of the standard model with local B-L symmetry and two complex scalars breaking B-L can provide a unified description of neutrino mass, origin of matter and dark matter. There are two hierarchical B-L…
With the advent of new and more sensitive direct detection experiments, scope for a thermal WIMP explanation of dark matter (DM) has become extremely constricted. The non-observation of thermal WIMP in these experiments has put a strong…
We propose a unified setup for dark matter, inflation and baryon asymmetry generation through the neutrino mass seesaw mechanism. Our scenario emerges naturally from an extended gauge group containing $B-L$ as a non-commutative symmetry,…
We propose a new model where the Dirac mass term for neutrinos, the Majorana mass term for right-handed neutrinos, and the other new fermion masses arise via the spontaneous breakdown of the $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge symmetry. The anomaly-free…
We explore the possibilities of dark matter production in a U(1) extension of the standard model, also called the super-weak model. The freeze-in and freeze-out mechanisms are described in detail, assuming the lightest sterile neutrino in…
We prove that the $SU(3)_C\otimes SU(2)_L \otimes SU(3)_R\otimes U(1)_X$ (3-2-3-1) gauge model always contains a matter parity $W_P=(-1)^{3(B-L)+2s}$ as conserved residual gauge symmetry, where $B-L=2(\beta T_{8R}+X)$ is a $SU(3)_R\otimes…
We consider an incarnation of left-right symmetric model with a local gauge symmetry of $SU(3)_C \otimes SU(2)_L \otimes U(1)_L \otimes SU(2)_R \otimes U(1)_R$. Heavy scalars and fermions present in the {\bf 27} of $E_6$ are included in the…
We consider realizations of a gauged B-L symmetry in the context of the Dark Dimension scenario, where the SM lives on a codimension one brane in 5d spacetime. The B-L can naturally be a bulk gauge symmetery leading to a global symmetry on…
We consider an extension of the Standard Model of particle physics with an additional $SU(2)$ gauge sector along with an additional scalar bidoublet and a non-linear sigma field. The neutral components of the bidoublet serve as dark matter…
Gauging the global $B-L$ (Baryon number minus Lepton number) symmetry in the Standard Model (SM) is well-motivated since anomaly cancellations require the introduction of three right-handed neutrinos (RHNs) which play an essential role in…
We provide a generic framework to obtain stable dark matter along with naturally small Dirac neutrino masses generated at the loop level. This is achieved through the spontaneous breaking of the global $U(1)_{B-L}$ symmetry already present…
We construct the minimal dark matter models in the left-right symmetric extensions of the standard model (SM), where the gauge symmetry SU(3)$_C\times$SU(2)$_L\times$SU(2)$_R\times$U(1)$_{B-L}$ is broken into its subgroup…
We present a detailed study of dark matter phenomenology in low-scale left-right symmetric models. Stability of new fermion or scalar multiplets is ensured by an accidental matter parity that survives the spontaneous symmetry breaking of…
We consider a simple class of models in which the relic density of dark matter is determined by the baryon asymmetry of the universe. In these models a $B - L$ asymmetry generated at high temperatures is transfered to the dark matter, which…
We show that a standard model gauge singlet fermion field, with mass of order keV or larger, and involved in the inverse seesaw mechanism of light neutrino mass generation, can be a good warm dark matter candidate. Our framework is based on…
We show that spontaneous breaking of global $B-L$ symmetry responsible for small neutrino masses via the seesaw mechanism provides a unified picture of hybrid inflation and dark matter if the scale of $B-L$ breaking is close to the GUT…
In this work, we investigate a neutrinophilic low-mass dark matter model mediated by a pseudoscalar particle. Since dark matter lacks Standard Model gauge charges, new interactions are required to connect it to the visible sector.…
We propose a scenario of the right-handed neutrino dark matter in the context of the minimal gauged $U(1)_{B-L}$ model by introducing an additional parity which ensures the stability of dark matter particle. The annihilation of this…
We show that the canonical seesaw mechanism implemented by the $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge symmetry provides two-component dark matter naturally. The seesaw scale that breaks $B-L$ defines a residual gauge symmetry to be $Z_6=Z_2\otimes Z_3$, where…
