Baryogenesis from the weak scale to the grand unification scale

D Bödeker, W Buchmüller - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2021 - APS
The current status of baryogenesis is reviewed, with an emphasis on electroweak
baryogenesis and leptogenesis. The first detailed studies were carried out for SU (5) grand …

Leptogenesis

S Davidson, E Nardi, Y Nir - Physics Reports, 2008 - Elsevier
Leptogenesis is a class of scenarios where the baryon asymmetry of the Universe is
produced from a lepton asymmetry generated in the decays of heavy singlet neutrinos. We …

Gravitational wave production right after a primordial black hole evaporation

K Inomata, M Kawasaki, K Mukaida, T Terada… - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
We discuss the footprint of evaporation of primordial black holes (PBHs) on stochastic
gravitational waves (GWs) induced by scalar perturbations. We consider the case where …

A lower bound on the right-handed neutrino mass from leptogenesis

S Davidson, A Ibarra - Physics Letters B, 2002 - Elsevier
In the see-saw model, the baryon asymmetry of the Universe can be generated by the decay
of the lightest right-handed neutrino, νR. For a hierarchical spectrum of right-handed …

Theory of neutrinos: a white paper

RN Mohapatra, S Antusch, KS Babu… - Reports on Progress …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
This paper is a review of the present status of neutrino mass physics, which grew out of an
APS sponsored study of neutrinos in 2004. After a discussion of the present knowledge of …

Leptogenesis as the origin of matter

W Buchmüller, RD Peccei… - Annu. Rev. Nucl. Part. Sci …, 2005 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract We explore in some detail the hypothesis that the generation of a primordial lepton-
antilepton asymmetry (Leptogenesis) early on in the history of the Universe is the root cause …

Primordial black holes from an electroweak phase transition

P Huang, KP Xie - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We propose a mechanism that forms primordial black holes (PBHs) via a first-order
electroweak phase transition (FOEWPT). The FOEWPT is realized by extending the …

[HTML][HTML] Probing the scale of grand unification with gravitational waves

W Buchmuller, V Domcke, H Murayama, K Schmitz - Physics Letters B, 2020 - Elsevier
The spontaneous breaking of U (1) B− L around the scale of grand unification can
simultaneously account for hybrid inflation, leptogenesis, and neutralino dark matter, thus …

Flavor physics of leptons and dipole moments

M Raidal, A Van der Schaaf, I Bigi, ML Mangano… - The European Physical …, 2008 - Springer
This chapter of the report of the “Flavor in the era of the LHC” Workshop discusses the
theoretical, phenomenological and experimental issues related to flavor phenomena in the …

Leptogenesis, primordial gravitational waves, and PBH-induced reheating

B Barman, SJ Das, MR Haque, Y Mambrini - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We explore the possibility of producing the observed matter-antimatter asymmetry of the
Universe uniquely from the evaporation of primordial black holes (PBHs) that are formed in …
