Search for a Lorentz-violating sidereal signal with atmospheric neutrinos in IceCube

Matthias Wolf, Shirit Cohen, Mathieu Ribordy, Xiaoxia Bai

A search for sidereal modulation in the flux of atmospheric muon neutrinos in IceCube was performed. Such a signal could be an indication of Lorentz-violating physics. Neutrino oscillation models, derivable from extensions to the standard model, allow for ...

Probing Resonant Leptogenesis at the LHC

Steve Blanchet

We explore direct collider probes of the resonant leptogenesis mechanism for the origin of matter. We work in the context of theories where the Standard Model is extended to include an additional gauged U(1) symmetry broken at the TeV scale, and where the ...

The role of sterile neutrinos in cosmology and astrophysics

Alexey Boyarsky, Oleg Ruchayskiy

We present a comprehensive overview of an extension of the Standard Model that contains three right-handed (sterile) neutrinos with masses below the electroweak scale [the Neutrino Minimal Standard Model (vMSM)]. We consider the history of the Universe fro ...

Non-unitary Leptonic Mixing and Leptogenesis

Steve Blanchet

We investigate the relation between non-unitarity of the leptonic mixing matrix and leptogenesis. We discuss how all parameters of the canonical type-I seesaw mechanism can, in principle, be reconstructed from the neutrino mass matrix and the deviation of ...

Reconciling leptogenesis with observable μ → eγ rates

Steve Blanchet

We perform a detailed analysis of thermal leptogenesis in the framework of seesaw models which approximately conserve lepton number. These models are known to allow for large Yukawa couplings and a low seesaw scale in agreement with neutrino mass constrain ...

Determination of the atmospheric neutrino flux and searches for new physics with AMANDA-II

Shirit Cohen, Mathieu Ribordy, Levent Demirörs, Xiaoxia Bai

The AMANDA-II detector, operating since 2000 in the deep ice at the geographic South Pole, has accumulated a large sample of atmospheric muon neutrinos in the 100 GeV to 10 TeV energy range. The zenith angle and energy distribution of these events can be u ...

The nuMSM, leptonic asymmetries, and properties of singlet fermions

We study in detail the mechanism of baryon and lepton asymmetry generation in the framework of the νMSM (an extension of the Standard Model by three singlet fermions with masses smaller than the electroweak scale). We elucidate the issue of CP-violation in ...

A New Era of Leptogenesis

Steve Blanchet

This thesis is devoted to some forefront issues in the field of leptogenesis. After reviewing the simplest picture where flavor effects are neglected and only the lightest right-handed neutrino contributes to the generation of asymmetry, we discuss in deta ...

Leptogenesis with an almost conserved lepton number

Steve Blanchet

Seesaw models with a slightly broken lepton number symmetry can explain small neutrino masses, and allow for low-scale leptogenesis. We make a thorough analysis of leptogenesis within the simplest model with two right-handed (RH) neutrinos (or with N_3 dec ...

How to find neutral leptons of the nuMSM?

An extension of the Standard Model by three singlet fermions with masses smaller than the electroweak scale allows to explain simultaneously neutrino oscillations, dark matter and baryon asymmetry of the Universe. We discuss the properties of neutral lepto ...
