We study baryogenesis through lepton number violation in left-right symmetric models. In these models the lepton number and CP violating interactions of the triplet higgs scalars can give rise to lepton number asymmetry through…
Assuming the seesaw and leptogenesis mechanisms, I give some general remarks on possible connection or disconnection between CP violation in heavy Majorana neutrino decays and that in neutrino oscillations. A simple but predictive ansatz is…
We propose an idea that the observed CP violation in neutrino oscillation is originated from the phase in right-handed neutrino mixing by seesaw mechanism. We add small breaking terms $M_{ij}N_{R_i}N_{R_j} $ in model based on $A_4$ symmetry…
Leptogenesis is the most favourable mechanism for generating the observed baryon asymmetry of the Universe (BAU) which implies CP violation in the high energy scale. The low energy leptonic CP violation is expected to be observed in the…
CP violation and the violation of baryon-minus-lepton number B-L do not necessarily have to occur simultaneously in order to accomplish successful leptogenesis. Instead, it suffices if new CP-violating interactions at high energies result…
We present an explicit computation of the CP asymmetry in scattering processes involving the heavy right-handed neutrinos of the type I seesaw framework and the Standard Model gauge bosons. Compared to CP violation in two--body decays and…
We construct a model in which neutrinos and anti-neutrinos acquire the same mass but slightly different energy dispersion relations.Despite CPT violation, spin-statistics is preserved. We find that leptogenesis can be easily explained…
We introduce the novel phenomena of CP-violating inflation in the frameworks of a 3-Higgs doublet model where the inflaton doublets have a non-minimal coupling to gravity. We allow for this coupling to be complex, thereby introducing…
A typical problem of the leptogenesis scenario is the mismatch between the maximum reheat temperature implied by gravitino overproduction bound and the minimum temperature required to create thermally the lightest right-handed neutrino. We…
We discuss the question of CP-violation in the effective Hamiltonian approach in models of leptogenesis through heavy right handed neutrino decays. We first formulate the problem in four component notation and then point out that before the…
We constructed a model for spontaneous CP symmetry breaking in five-dimensional space-time that has a potential to solve the strong CP problem. To explain the nature of dark matter and the baryon asymmetry of the universe, three…
We consider a phenomenological extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) which incorporates non-minimal chaotic inflation, driven by a quadratic potential in conjunction with a linear term in the frame function.…
We study the inflation due to the D-flat direction of an extra $U(1)$. This scenario is a hybrid of a right-handed sneutrino inflaton scenario and a gauge non-singlet inflaton scenario. The inflaton is a gauge non-singlet field which…
We numerically study the correlation between CP violation in the neutrino oscillations and baryogenesis in the seesaw model. In this study we get the heavy Majorana neutrino masses and lepton number asymmetries from their decays by fitting…
In a supersymmetric left-right symmetric model, inflation, baryogenesis (via leptogenesis) and neutrino oscillations can become closely linked. A familiar ansatz for the neutrino Dirac masses and mixing of the two heaviest families,…
We consider a model of baryogenesis based on adding lepton number-violating quadratic mass terms to the inflaton potential of a non-minimally coupled inflation model. The $L$-violating mass terms generate a lepton asymmetry in a complex…
Leptogenesis constitues a very simple scenario to achieve the baryon asymmetry that we observe today. It requires only the presence of right handed neutrinos (which arise very naturally in many extensions of the Standard Model) and depends…
The phenomenology of 3-neutrino mixing, the current status of our knowledge about the 3-neutrino mixing parameters, including the absolute neutrino mass scale, and of the Dirac and Majorana CP violation in the lepton sector, are reviewed.…
The necessary complex structures needed for CP violation are not easy to generate and, indeed, CP can be a symmetry in higher dimensional theories. In 4-dimensions CP violation argues for the existence of a scalar sector and, in its…
The CP-violation necessary for the generation of the baryon asymmetry of the Universe $Y_B$ in the "flavoured" leptogenesis scenario can arise from the "low energy" PMNS neutrino mixing matrix $U$ and/or from the "high energy" part of…
