We review the production of the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the early Universe, that is baryogenesis, in out-of-equlibrium conditions induced by decays of heavy particles or by the presence of phase boundaries. The most prominent…
In these lecture notes an introduction is given to some ideas and attempts to understand the origin of the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the universe. After the discussion of some basic issues of cosmology and particle theory the scenarios…
CP violation is a crucial component in the creation of the matter - anti matter asymmetry of the universe. An important open question is whether the CP violating phenomena observeable in terrestrial experiments have any relation with those…
The phenomena of dark matter and the baryon asymmetry pose two of the most pressing questions in today's fundamental physics. Conversion-driven freeze-out has emerged as a successful mechanism to generate the observed dark matter relic…
We describe the role of CP violation in the generation of the baryon asymmetry of the Universe, in the framework of baryogenesis through leptogenesis, with emphasis on the possible relationship between CP violation at low energies and that…
In this work we review the theories of origin of matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Universe. The general conditions for achieving baryogenesis and leptogenesis in a CPT conserving field theory have been laid down by Sakharov. In this…
We revisit a model of electroweak baryogenesis that includes a dark matter candidate, and sequesters the new CP violation required to produce the baryon asymmetry in a dark sector. The model can explain the baryon asymmetry, dark matter…
Baryon asymmetry of the Universe is evaluated in the model originally proposed in Phys. Rev. Lett. 102 (2009) 051805, where Majorana masses of neutrinos are generated via three-loop diagrams composed of additional scalar bosons including…
In order to address the baryon asymmetry in the Universe one needs to understand the origin of baryon (B) and lepton (L) number violation. In this article, we discuss the mechanism of baryogenesis via leptogenesis to explain the…
The origin of neutrino masses can be simply attributed to a new scalar beyond the Standard Model. We demonstrate that leptogenesis can explain the baryon asymmetry of the universe already in such a minimal framework, where the electroweak…
With the motivation of explaining the dark matter and achieving the electroweak baryogenesis via the spontaneous CP-violation at high temperature, we propose a complex singlet scalar ($S=\frac{\chi+i\eta_s}{\sqrt{2}}$) extension of the…
We propose a novel framework where baryon asymmetry of the universe can arise due to forbidden decay of dark matter (DM) enabled by finite-temperature effects in the vicinity of a first order phase transition (FOPT). In order to implement…
The classical picture of GUT baryogenesis has been strongly modified by theoretical progress concerning two nonperturbative features of the standard model: the phase diagram of the electroweak theory, and baryon and lepton number changing…
We investigate the possibility that dark matter and the baryon asymmetry of the Universe are generated by the same mechanism, following an idea initially proposed by V.A. Kuzmin and recently discussed by R. Kitano and I. Low. In our model,…
We study a simple extension of the standard model to simultaneously explain neutrino masses, dark matter and the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe. In our model, the baryon asymmetry is achieved by the leptogenesis mechanism,…
With the assistance of a complex singlet, and an effective operator involving CP violations, the dark matter relic abundance and baryon asymmetry of the universe have been addressed simul- taneously. We studied the electroweak baryogenesis…
A CPT violating decoherence scenario can easily account for all the experimental evidence in the neutrino sector including LSND. In this work it is argued that this framework can also accommodate the Dark Energy content of the Universe, as…
We propose a simple renormalizable model of baryogenesis and asymmetric dark matter generation at the electroweak phase transition. Our setup utilizes the two Higgs doublet model plus two complex gauge singlets, the lighter of which is…
We briefly explain how the present baryon-antibaryon asymmetry of the universe could have arisen through leptogenesis, and then discuss a new version of leptogenesis in which CP violation in electromagnetic decays plays the central role.
The extension of the Standard Model by right handed neutrinos with masses in the GeV range can simultaneously explain the observed neutrino masses via the seesaw mechanism and the baryon asymmetry of the universe via leptogenesis. It has…
