Validity of quasi-degenerate neutrino mass models and their predictions on baryogenesis
Quasi-degenerate neutrino mass models (QDN) which can explain the current
data on neutrino masses and mixings,are studied. In the first part, we study
the effect of CP-phases on QDN mass matrix obeying symmetry in
normal hierarchical (QD-NH) and inverted hierarchical (QD-IH) patterns.The
numerical predictions are consistent with observed data on solar mixing angle,
absolute neutrino mass parameter consistent with neutrinoless double beta decay
mass parameter and sum of three absolute neutrino masses from cosmological
bound.The neutrino mass matrix is parameterized using only two unknown
parameters. The second part deals with the estimation of observed baryon
asymmetry of the universe. The prediction is nearly consistent with observation
with flavoured thermal leptogenesis scenario. QD-NH model appears to be more
favourable than those of QD-IH models.The present analysis shows that the three
absolute neutrino masses may exhibit quasi-degenerate pattern in nature. They
are far from discrimination at the moment.Comment: 17 pages, no figure, poster presentation in the 25th International
