We consider various possibilities for generating neutrino masses in supersymmetric models with an additional U(1)' gauge symmetry. One class of models involves two extra U(1)' x U(1)'' gauge symmetries, with U(1)'' breaking at an…
We investigate the possibility of accommodating neutrino masses compatible with the MSW study of the Solar neutrino deficit within the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. The ``gravity-induced'' seesaw mechanism based on an interplay of…
Cosmological constraints on the sum of the neutrino masses can be relaxed if the number density of active neutrinos is reduced compared to the standard scenario, while at the same time keeping the effective number of neutrino species…
We consider theories where the Standard Model (SM) neutrinos acquire masses through the seesaw mechanism at the weak scale. We show that in such a scenario, the requirement that any pre-existing baryon asymmetry, regardless of its origin,…
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…
The accessibility to physics responsible for tiny neutrino mass suggests that the mass should better originate from certain higher dimensional operators. The conventional three types of seesaw operate at dimension five with the help of…
Sterile neutrinos with sub-electron volt (eV) masses have recently received serious attention due to the tantalizing hints from reactor neutrino experiments as well as cosmology. While the nine year old Wilkinson Mass Anisotropy Probe…
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…
The unique dimension-$5$ effective operator, $LLHH$, known as the Weinberg operator, generates tiny Majorana masses for neutrinos after electroweak spontaneous symmetry breaking. If there are new scalar multiplets that take vacuum…
We investigate an alternative seesaw mechanism for neutrino mass generation. Neutrino mass is generated at loop level but the basic concept of usual seesaw mechanism is kept. One simple model is constructed to show how this mechanism is…
We propose a radiative seesaw model in alternative left-right model without any bidoublet scalar fields, in which all the fermion masses in the standard model are generated through a canonical seesaw mechanism at the tree level. On the…
We present a mathematical framework for constructing the most general neutrino mass matrices that yield the observed spectrum of light active neutrino masses in conjunction with arbitrarily many heavy sterile neutrinos, without the need to…
A general prediction from asymptotically safe quantum gravity is the approximate vanishing of all quartic scalar couplings at the UV fixed point beyond the Planck scale. A vanishing Higgs doublet quartic coupling near the Planck scale…
Next-generation experiments, such as the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment and the European Spallation Source, are set to improve sensitivity to neutron-antineutron oscillation, a direct probe of $\Delta B = 2$ baryon number violation,…
We revisit the dynamical generation of an arbitrarily small neutrino Yukawa coupling in the Standard Model with trans-Planckian asymptotic safety and apply the same mechanism to the gauged $B-L$ model. We show that thanks to the presence of…
We perform a systematic study of the $d=5$ Weinberg operator at the one-loop level. We identify three different categories of neutrino mass generation: (1) finite irreducible diagrams; (2) finite extensions of the usual seesaw mechanisms at…
We study a different variant of Left-Right Symmetric Model, incorporating Dirac type neutrinos. In the absence of the bi-doublet scalars, the possibility of a universal seesaw type of mass generation mechanism for all the Standard Model…
We present a predictive framework for neutrino mass generation based on the spontaneous breaking of a leptonic $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ symmetry within a supersymmetric setting. The breaking of the global symmetry gives rise to a Majoron-like…
We consider a new Weinberg operator for neutrino mass of the form $H_u\tilde{H_d}L_iL_j$ involving two different Higgs doublets $H_u, H_d$ with opposite hypercharge, where $\tilde{H_d}$ is the charge conjugated doublet. It may arise from a…
We conduct a systematic search for neutrino mass models which only radiatively produce the dimension-5 Weinberg operator. We thereby do not allow for additional symmetries beyond the Standard Model gauge symmetry and we restrict ourselves…
