Self-interacting neutrinos: Solution to Hubble tension versus experimental constraints

Emmanuel Stamou

Exotic self-interactions among the Standard Model neutrinos have been proposed as a potential reason behind the tension in the expansion rate, H-0, of the universe inferred from different observations. We constrain this proposal using electroweak precision ...

Einstein-Cartan Portal to Dark Matter

Andrey Shkerin, Inar Timiryasov, Sebastian Zell

It is well known since the works of Utiyama and Kibble that the gravitational force can be obtained by gauging the Poincare group, which puts gravity on the same footing as the standard model fields. The resulting theory-Einstein-Cartan gravity-inevitably ...

Spontaneous baryogenesis from axions with generic couplings

Valerie Fiona Domcke

Axion-like particles can source the baryon asymmetry of our Universe through spontaneous baryogenesis. Here we clarify that this is a generic outcome for essentially any coupling of an axion-like particle to the Standard Model, requiring only a non-zero ve ...

BBN constraints on universally-coupled ultralight scalar dark matter

Sergey Sibiryakov

Ultralight scalar dark matter can interact with all massive Standard Model particles through a universal coupling. Such a coupling modifies the Standard Model particle masses and affects the dynamics of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. We model the cosmological e ...

Dirac vs. Majorana HNLs (and their oscillations) at SHiP

SHiP is a proposed high-intensity beam dump experiment set to operate at the CERN SPS. It is expected to have an unprecedented sensitivity to a variety of models containing feebly interacting particles, such as Heavy Neutral Leptons (HNLs). Two HNLs or mor ...

Low-scale leptogenesis with three heavy neutrinos

Marco Drewes, Valerie Fiona Domcke, Juraj Klaric, Michele Lucente

Leptogenesis induced by the oscillations of GeV-scale neutrinos provides a minimal and testable explanation of the baryon asymmetry of the Universe. In this work we extend previous studies invoking only two heavy neutrinos to the case of three heavy neutri ...

Parameter space of baryogenesis in the nu MSM

Inar Timiryasov, Shintaro Eijima

The Standard Model accompanied with two right-handed neutrinos with masses below the weak scale can explain the observed baryon asymmetry of the Universe. Moreover, this model is at least partially testable in the forthcoming experiments such as NA62, SHiP ...

On lepton number violation in heavy neutrino decays at colliders

Marco Drewes, Juraj Klaric

We study the perspective to observe lepton number violating signatures from heavy Majorana neutrino decays at colliders in view of the requirement to explain the light neutrino masses via the seesaw mechanism. In the minimal model with only two heavy neutr ...

Natural seesaw and leptogenesis from hybrid of high-scale type I and TeV-scale inverse

Majid Ekhterachian, Luca Vecchi

We develop an extension of the basic inverse seesaw model which addresses simultaneously two of its drawbacks, namely, the lack of explanation of the tiny Majorana mass term for the TeV-scale singlet fermions and the difficulty in achieving successful lept ...

The bearable compositeness of leptons

Luca Vecchi

Partial compositeness as a theory of flavor in the lepton sector is assessed. We begin presenting the first systematic analysis of neutrino mass generation in this context, and identifying the distinctive mass textures. We then update the bounds from charg ...
