Neutrino masses and unification of the gauge and Yukawa couplings
نویسنده
چکیده
There is a convincing experimental evidence that neutrinos are massive. Therefore we investigate the influence of the neutrino masses on the unification of gauge and Yukawa couplings in the framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We estimate the contribution of the neutrino Yukawa coupling to the gauge and Yukawa coupling unification. We find that in the case of the gauge coupling unification the effect of massive neutrinos is small and can be neglected. It appears to be much more significant, if we explore Yb and Yτ equality at the GUT scale. The neutrino contribution can change that relation even by ∼12%.

Yukawa Couplings and Quark and Lepton Masses in an SO(10) Model with a Unified Higgs Sector
An analytic computation is given of the generation of Yukawa couplings and of the quark, charged lepton and neutrino masses in the framework of an SO(10) model with a unified Higgs sector consisting of a single pair of vector-spinor 144+144 of Higgs multiplets. This unified Higgs sector allows for a breaking of SO(10) to the gauge group SU(3)× SU(2)L × U(1)Y and contains light Higgs doublets al...
متن کاملTesting the seesaw mechanism at collider energies in the Randall-Sundrum model
The Randall-Sundrum model with gauge fields and fermions in the bulk has several attractive features including the gauge coupling unification, a candidate for the dark matter, and an explanation for the hierarchical Yukawa couplings. In this paper, we point out that the 1st Kaluza-Klein modes of right-handed neutrinos may be produced at colliders, for both Dirac and Majorana neutrino cases. Fur...
متن کاملNeutrino Masses, Mixing Angles and the Unification of Couplings in the MSSM
In the light of the gathering evidence for νμ − ντ neutrino oscillations, coming in particular from the Super-Kamiokande data on atmospheric neutrinos, we re-analyze the unification of gauge and Yukawa couplings within the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM). Guided by a range of different grand-unified models, we stress the relevance of large mixing in the lepton sect...
متن کاملUnification of Higgs and Gauge Fields in Five Dimensions
We construct realistic theories in which the Higgs fields arise from extra dimensional components of higher dimensional gauge fields. In particular, we present a minimal 5D SU(3)C×SU(3)W model and a unified 5D SU(6) model. In both cases the theory is reduced to the minimal supersymmetric standard model below the compactification scale, with the two Higgs doublets arising from the 5D gauge multi...
متن کاملNeutrino masses , anomalous U ( 1 ) gauge symmetry and doublet - triplet splitting
We propose an attractive scenario of grand unified theories in which doublet-triplet splitting is beautifully realized in SO(10) unification using Dimopoulos-Wilczek mechanism. The anomalous U(1)A gauge symmetry plays essential roles in the doublet-triplet splitting mechanism. It is interesting that the anomalous U(1)A charges determine the unification scale and mass spectrum of additional part...
