Majorana Neutrinos in a Warped 5D Standard Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider neutrino oscillations and neutrinoless double beta decay in a five dimensional standard model with warped geometry. Although the seesaw mechanism in its simplest form cannot be implemented because of the warped geometry, the bulk standard model neutrinos can acquire the desired (Majorana) masses from dimension five interactions. We discuss how large mixings can arise, why the large mixing angle MSW solution for solar neutrinos is favored, and provide estimates for the mixing angle Ue3. Implications for neutrinoless double beta decay are also discussed. [email protected] [email protected]

Seesaw Mechanism in Warped Geometry
We show how the seesaw mechanism for neutrino masses can be realized within a five dimensional (5D) warped geometry framework. Intermediate scale standard model (SM) singlet neutrino masses, needed to explain the atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations, are shown to be proportional to MPl exp((2c − 1)πkR), where c denotes the coefficient of the 5D Dirac mass term for the singlet neutrino wh...
متن کاملماده تاریک آناپولی در مدل استاندارد تعمیم یافته و مدل استاندارد ناجابجایی
In the ADM the dark matters interact with the ordinary matters exclusively through the electromagnetic anapoles. Meanwhile, the only allowed electromagnetic form factor for the spin 1/2 Majorana fermions is the anapole one. We study the electromagnetic interaction of the Majorana neutrinos in non-commutative standard model (NCSM) and the Lorentz violated extension of the standard model (SME). C...
متن کاملNeutrinos in 5D SO(10) Unification
We study neutrino physics in a 5D supersymmetric SO(10) GUT. We analyze several different choices for realizing the SeeSaw mechanism. We find that the " natural " scale for the Majorana mass of right-handed neutrinos depends critically on whether the right-handed neutrinos are located in the bulk or localized on a brane. In the former case, the effective Majorana mass M eff is " naturally " of ...
متن کاملFermion Mass Hierarchy from the Soft Wall
We develop a 5d model for ElectroWeak physics based on a non compact warped extra dimension of finite length, known as the soft wall scenario, where all the dynamical degrees of freedom propagate in the 5d bulk. We solve the equations of motion and find the allowed spectra, showing that the mass of the lightest fermionic mode behaves as a power law of the effective 4d Yukawa coupling constant, ...

A demonstration that the observed neutrinos are not Majorana particles Abstract It is shown that Majorana neutrinos cannot couple vectorially to the neutral-current SU(2) L x U(1) gauge field of the standard model. The absence of physics beyond the standard model (in particular Higgs-field configurations which lead to Majorana mass terms) is not assumed for this argument. Since the existence of...
