The subtitle of my talk is ``The quest for understanding the origin of neutrino masses''. After reviewing why the discovery of neutrino masses is also the discovery of New Physics, the substance of the talk details mechanisms for generating…
Naturally small Majorana neutrino masses arise from nonstandard supersymmetry breaking terms. This mechanism works in the minimal supersymmetric framework and does not require extra particles or new mass scales. It could also be responsible…
Determining the nature -Dirac or Majorana- of massive neutrinos is one of the most pressing and challenging problems in the field of neutrino physics. We discuss how one can possibly extract information on the couplings, if any, which might…
The history of neutrino mixing and oscillations is briefly presented. Basics of neutrino mixing and oscillations and convenient formalism of neutrino oscillations in vacuum is given. The role of neutrino in the Standard Model and the…
We discuss a radiative type-I seesaw. In these models, the radiative generation of Dirac neutrino masses allows to explain the smallness of the observed neutrino mass scale for rather light right-handed neutrino masses in a type-I seesaw.…
We propose a model for neutrino mass generation based on both the tree-level seesaw mechanism with a single right-handed neutrino and one-loop radiative effects in a non-supersymmetric framework. The generated mass matrix is composed of two…
Assuming equal tree-level Majorana masses for the standard-model neutrinos, either from the canonical seesaw mechanism or from a heavy scalar triplet, I discuss how their radiative splitting may be relevant to neutrinoless double beta decay…
We endeavor to constrain the neutrino mass matrix on the phenomenological ground and procure model-independent textures by emphasizing on the simple linear relationships among the mass matrix elements. These simple textures predict the two…
In this work, we explore the proposed mechanism in which the gravitational $\theta$ anomaly generates neutrino masses. We highlight that the leading renormalizable interactions of the neutrino condensate forbid the possibility of generating…
I review the subject of double beta decay with emphasis upon its implications for the neutrino. It is shown that even if right-handed currents provide the phenomenological mechanism for no-neutrino decay, the fundamental mechanism…
In this paper we explain the 750 GeV diphoton resonance observed at the run-2 LHC as a scalar singlet $S$, that plays a key rule in generating tiny but nonzero Majorana neutrino masses. The model contains four electroweak singlets: two…
We consider the scheme with mixing of three neutrinos and a mass hierarchy. We shown that, under the natural assumptions that massive neutrinos are Majorana particles and there are no unlikely fine-tuned cancellations among the…
A simple extension of the Standard Model providing TeV scale seesaw mechanism is presented. Beside the Standard Model particles and right-handed Majorana neutrinos, the model contains a singly charged scalar, an extra Higgs doublet and…
The problem of neutrino masses and mixing angles is analysed in a class of supersymmetric grand unified models, with SO(10) gauge symmetry and global U(2) flavour symmetry. Adopting the seesaw mechanism for the generation of the neutrino…
In this work, we report on recent analyses of a class of models that generate neutrino mass at the three-loop level. We argue that these models offer a viable solution to both the neutrino mass and dark matter problems, without being in…
In this talk we show how a natural neutrino mass hierarchy can follow from the type I see-saw mechanism, and a natural neutrino mass degeneracy from the type II see-saw mechanism, where the bi-large mixing angles can arise from either the…
A generalisation of the neutrinoless double beta decay process is presented. Neutrinoless double beta decay measures only one out of nine possible effective Majorana neutrino masses in case of three flavours. Limits obtained for all the…
A mechanism for generating small tree-level Majorana mass for neutrinos is implemented in the 331 Model. No additional fermions or scalars need to be added, and no mass scale greater than a few TeV is invoked.
Motivated by recent intensive experimental efforts on searching for neutrinoless double beta decays, we present a detailed quantitative analysis on the prospect of resolving neutrino mass ordering in the next generation $^{76}$Ge-type…
We consider a massive Dirac neutrino electric charge and magnetic moment within the context of the standard model supplied with SU(2)-singlet right-handed neutrino in arbitrary R_\xi gauge. Using the dimensional-regularization scheme we…
