The neutrino option is a scenario where the electroweak scale, and thereby the Higgs mass, is generated simultaneously with neutrino masses in the seesaw model. This occurs via the leading one loop and tree level diagrams matching the…
We show that active neutrino masses and a keV-GeV mass sterile neutrino dark matter candidate can result from a modified, low energy seesaw mechanism if right-handed neutrinos are charged under a new symmetry broken by a scalar field vacuum…
A right-handed neutrino is a promising candidate for dark matter (DM) which has no interaction with nuclei. Since two right-handed neutrinos explain neutrino oscillation data and baryon number asymmetry through both the seesaw mechanism and…
We introduce a framework for hybrid neutrino mass generation, wherein scotogenic dark sector particles, including dark matter, are charged non-trivially under the $A_4$ flavor symmetry. The spontaneous breaking of the $A_4$ group to…
Seesaw mechanisms are the simplest and the most elegant way of generating small masses for the active neutrinos $(m_\nu)$. In these mechanisms $m_\nu$ is inversely proportional to the lepton number breaking scale $(M)$ that, in the…
We propose a neutrino mass matrix model in which five neutrino species remain light through the seesaw mechanism within a supersymmetric $3\nu_L+3\nu_R$ framework. We construct such a model based on the nonrenormalizable terms in the…
The minimal scotogenic model where small neutrino masses arise via radiative seesaw, is known to provide a unified framework for neutrino mass and origin of matter via leptogenesis. However if the inflation reheat temperature of the…
Neutrinos stand out among elementary particles through their unusually small masses. Various seesaw mechanisms attempt to explain this fact. In this work applying insights from matrix theory we are in a position to treat variants of seesaw…
The seesaw mechanism to derive the light masses of left-handed neutrinos using heavy masses of right-handed neutrinos gives rise to a connection between low-energy measurables and GUT-scale mechanism. We expresses the neutrino mixing angles…
The implementation of the Type III seesaw mechanism for neutrino masses in the context of left-right theories where parity is broken spontaneously is investigated. We propose a simple left-right symmetric theory where the neutrinos masses…
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…
Right-handed neutrinos $N$ are introduced to explain the origin of the tiny neutrino masses via the seesaw mechanism. Required by relatively large Yukawa coupling and leptogenesis, masses of right-handed neutrinos are beyond $10^{9}$ GeV.…
We propose that neutrino masses are "seeded" by a dark sector within the inverse seesaw mechanism. This way we have a new, "hidden", variant of the scotogenic scenario for radiative neutrino masses. We discuss both explicit and dynamical…
We study a model of neutrino and dark matter within the framework of a minimal extended seesaw. This framework is based on $A_4$ flavor symmetry along with the discrete $Z_4$ symmetry to stabilize the dark matter and construct desired mass…
The hierarchy in scale between atmospheric and solar neutrino mass splittings is investigated through two distinct neutrino mass mechanisms, from tree- and one-loop-level contributions. We demonstrate that the minimal discrete dark matter…
Assuming hierarchical neutrino masses we calculate the heavy neutrino mass scale in the seesaw mechanism from experimental data on oscillations of solar and atmospheric neutrinos and quark-lepton symmetry. The resulting scale is around or…
We study models of neutrino masses which naturally give rise to an inverted mass hierarchy and bi-maximal mixing. The models are based on the see-saw mechanism with three right-handed neutrinos, which generates a single mass term of the…
I discuss how the ideas associated with Seesaws, first introduced in the context of neutrino masses, are generally useful for understanding the very disparate scales one encounters in particle physics. From this point of view, the energy…
If dark matter is light, it may be due to a seesaw mechanism just as neutrinos are. It is postulated that both originate from the same type of heavy fermion anchors, either singlets or triplets. In the latter case, a shift of the $W$ mass…
The scotogenic model of neutrino mass is modified so that the dark Majorana fermion singlet $S$ which makes the neutrino massive is itself generated in one loop. This is accomplished by having $Z_6$ lepton symmetry softly broken to $Z_2$ in…
