Curiously in the minimal left right symmetric model, chiral symmetry that protects the electron's mass ($m_e$), due to parity (P), implies in the symmetry limit the vanishing of its neutrino mixing angles. We break the chiral symmetry…
The B-L extension of the Standard Model requires the existence of right-handed neutrinos and naturally realizes the seesaw mechanism of neutrino mass generation. We study the possibility of explaining the dark matter in this model with an…
The fermionic nature of neutrinos and the origin of their tiny masses remain unresolved issues in particle physics, intrinsically connected to lepton number symmetry-conserved for Dirac, violated for Majorana, and effectively pseudo-Dirac…
Within the Standard Model with non-linearly realised electroweak symmetry, the LHC Higgs boson may reside in a singlet representation of the gauge group. Several new interactions are then allowed, including anomalous Higgs self-couplings,…
We propose an extension of the standard model of quarks and leptons to include gauge $B-L$ symmetry with an exotic array of neutral fermion singlets for anomaly cancellation. With the addition of suitable scalars also transforming under…
The latest measurements of the anomalous muon magnetic moment $a^{}_\mu \equiv (g^{}_\mu - 2)/2$ show a $4.2\sigma$ discrepancy between the theoretical prediction of the Standard Model and the experimental observations. In order to account…
In this paper we propose a radiated linear seesaw model where the naturally small term $\mu_{L}$ are generated at one-loop level and its soft-breaking of lepton number symmetry attributes to the spontaneous breaking(SSB) of B-L gauge…
Extensions of the Standard Model are required to give mass to the light neutrinos and explain neutrino oscillations. One of the simplest ideas is to introduce new heavy, gauge singlet fermions that play the role of right-handed neutrinos in…
It is shown that the requirement of preservation of baryon asymmetry does not rule out a scale for leptogenesis as low as 10 TeV. The conclusions are compatible with see-saw mechanism if for example the pivot mass scale for neutrinos is…
The top quark may get its mass not from a fundamental scalar but a Nambu-Jona-Lasinio mechanism involving a strongly coupled gauge sector that triggers top-quark condensation. Forbidding a large hierarchy in the gap equation implies that…
Motivated by some of the recent swampland conjectures, we study a model of dark energy, in which a quintessence axion slowly rolls in a steep potential due to its interactions with a U(1) or an SU(2) gauge field. The gauge fields produced…
Affleck-Dine (AD) baryogenesis is compelling yet challenging to probe because of the high-energy physics involved. We demonstrate that this mechanism can be generically realized with low-energy new physics, without supersymmetry, while…
We consider a mechanism for neutrino mass generation, based on a local B-L extension of the standard model, which becomes a linear seesaw regime for light neutrinos after spontaneous symmetry breaking. The spectrum of extra particles…
We calculate the spectrum of gravitational waves originated from strongly first order electroweak phase transition in the extended Higgs model with a real singlet field. In order to calculate the bubble nucleation rate, we perform a…
In seesaw mechanism, if right handed (RH) neutrino masses are generated dynamically by a gauged $U(1)$ symmetry breaking, a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) sourced by a cosmic string network could be a potential probe of…
We show that some models with $SU(3)_C\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry can be realized at the electroweak scale and that this is a consequence of an approximate global $SU(2)_{L+R}$ symmetry. This symmetry implies a condition…
The gauged $B - L$ symmetry is one of the simplest and well studied extension of standard model. In the conventional case, addition of three singlet right handed neutrinos each transforming as $-1$ under the $B - L$ symmetry renders it…
We construct a conformal version of a general multi-Higgs-doublet model with additional right-handed neutrino gauge-singlets. Assuming a minimal extension of the scalar sector by a real singlet field, we show that the resulting model…
In this work we implement the type II seesaw mechanism into the framework of the $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge model. As main gain, the right-handed neutrinos of the model get free to play the role of the dark matter of the universe. As side effect,…
We propose a modified version of the TeV scale B-L extension of the standard model, where neutrino masses are generated through the inverse seesaw mechanism. We show that heavy neutrinos associated with this model can be accessible via…
