Mechanisms for Majorana neutrino mass generation can be classified according to the level at which the Weinberg operator is generated. The different possibilities can be sorted in "canonical" tree level and loop-induced realizations, the…
We study the models with the Majorana neutrino masses generated radiatively by two-loop diagrams due to the Yukawa $\rho \bar \ell_R^c \ell_R$ and effective $\rho^{\pm\pm} W^\mp W^\mp$ couplings along with a scalar triplet $\Delta$, where…
We study the cocktail model in which the Majorana neutrino masses are generated by the so-called "cocktail" three-loop diagrams with the dark matter particle running in the loops. In particular, we give the correct analytic expressions of…
Neutrinoless double beta decay allows to constrain lepton number violating extensions of the standard model. If neutrinos are Majorana particles, the mass mechanism will always contribute to the decay rate, however, it is not a priori…
A two-loop induced radiative neutrino model is proposed as an extension of our previous work in which the first and second generation standard model fermion masses are generated at one-loop level in both quark and lepton sectors. Then we…
The simplest possibility to generate small Majorana neutrino masses is the seesaw mechanism. However, the smallness of the observed neutrino masses can also be understood, if neutrino masses are generated by higher-dimensional operators…
We systematically analyze the $d=5$ Weinberg operator at 2-loop order. Using a diagrammatic approach, we identify two different interesting categories of neutrino mass models: (i) Genuine 2-loop models for which both, tree-level and 1-loop…
We study a model with Majorana neutrino masses generated through doubly charged scalars at two-loop level. We give explicit relationships between the neutrino masses and the same sign dilepton decays of the doubly charged scalars. In…
Neutrino masses can be generated radiatively. In such scenarios their masses are calculated by evaluating a self-energy diagram with vanishing external momentum, i.e. taking only the leading order term in a momentum expansion. The…
The scale of neutrino mass generation may be too large to explore directly, but useful information may still be extracted from independent experimental channels. Here I survey various model independent probes of Majorana neutrino mass…
In these lecture notes we present mechanisms for the generation of Majorana neutrino masses and lepton mixing. We consider simple extensions of the Standard Model. Apart from a section about radiative mass generation, we put special…
If neutrino masses have a radiative origin, their smallness can be naturally understood even when lepton number violation occurs near the weak scale. We analyze a specific model of this type wherein the neutrino masses arise as two--loop…
In the introductory part we briefly consider basics of neutrino oscillations and convenient phenomenology of neutrino oscillations in vacuum. Main part of this report is dedicated to a discussion of a plausible BSM scenarios of neutrino…
Using the Weinberg operator, we present a full collection of genuine two-loop models for neutrino mass generation, which contain a dark matter particle as one of the internal messengers. These models can be constructed simply by adding new…
Neutrino oscillations constitute the first experimental confirmation of new physics, as they require a new piece that is absent in the Standard Model, non-zero neutrino masses. Questions such as how these masses are generated or why they…
Babu studied the neutrino spectrum obtained when one adds a charged singlet and a doubly charged singlet to the standard model particle spectrum. It was found that the neutrinos acquire a mass matrix at the two-loop level which contains one…
The smallness of the observed neutrino masses might have a radiative origin. Here we revisit a specific two-loop model of neutrino mass, independently proposed by Babu and Zee. We point out that current constraints from neutrino data can be…
We review and remark on models of radiatively induced neutrino Majorana masses and oscillations. It is pointed out that while the models are capable of accounting for the observed solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillation, some of them can…
We study a minimal one-loop radiative mechanism for generating small Majorana neutrino masses in inverse seesaw extensions of the Standard Model with two singlet fermions per family. The new feature of this radiative mechanism is that the…
In this brief review we discuss the generation of Majorana neutrino masses through the see-saw mechanism, the theory of neutrinoless double-beta decay, the implications of neutrino oscillation data for the effective Majorana mass, taking…
