Neutrinos and Lepton Flavour Violation in the Left-Right Twin Higgs Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
We analyse the lepton sector of the Left-Right Twin Higgs Model. This model offers an alternative way to solve the “little hierarchy” problem of the Standard Model. We show that one can achieve an effective see-saw to explain the origin of neutrino masses and that this model can accommodate the observed neutrino masses and mixings. We have also studied the lepton flavour violation process l1 → l2γ and discussed how the experimental bound from these branching ratios constrains the scale of symmetry breaking of this Twin Higgs model.

Baryogenesis through lepton number violation
The most promising scenarios of baryogenesis seems to be the one through lepton number violation. Lepton number violation through a Majarana mass of the right-handed neutrinos can generate a lepton asymmetry of the universe when the righthanded neutrinos decay. The left-handed neutrinos get small Majorana masses through see-saw mechanism in these models. A triplet higgs scalar violating lepton ...
متن کاملNeutrino-Mass Hierarchies and Non-linear Representation of Lepton-Flavour Symmetry
Lepton-flavour symmetry in the Standard Model is broken by small masses for charged leptons and neutrinos. Introducing neutrino masses via dimension-5 operators associated to lepton-number violation at a very high scale, the corresponding coupling matrix may still have entries of order 1, resembling the situation in the quark sector with large top Yukawa coupling. As we have shown recently, in ...
متن کاملLepton Electric Dipole Moments in Non-Degenerate Supersymmetric Seesaw Models
In the context of supersymmetric seesaw models of neutrino masses with non-degenerate heavy neutrinos, we show that Dirac Yukawa interactions N c i (Yν)ijLjH2 induce large threshold corrections to the slepton soft masses via renormalization. While still yielding rates for lepton-flavour-violating processes below the experimental bounds, these contributions may increase the muon and electron ele...
متن کاملLepton Flavour Violation in Supersymmetric Models
Nowadays the only evidence of lepton flavour violation (LFV) is provided by neutrino oscillations, which are the result of non-vanishing neutrino masses and mixing angles. It would be very important to observe other LFV phenomena. The Standard Model, however, does not offer promising scenarios since, for example, the LFV prototype decays, i.e. μ → γe, τ → μγ etc. are strongly suppressed by the ...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Seesaw without Singlet Neutrinos: Neutrino Masses and Lepton-Flavour Violation
We consider the supersymmetric seesaw mechanism induced by the exchange of heavy SU(2)W triplet states, rather than ‘right-handed’ neutrino singlets, to generate neutrino masses. We show that in this scenario the neutrino flavour structure tested at low-energy in the atmospheric and solar neutrino experiments is directly inherited from the neutrino Yukawa couplings to the triplets. This allows ...
