    Primordial Lepton Family Asymmtries in Seesaw Model

    Full text link
    In leptogenesis scenario, the decays of heavy Majorana neutrinos generate lepton family asymmetries, Ye,YμY_e, Y_{\mu} and YτY_{\tau}. They are sensitive to CP violating phases in seesaw models. The time evolution of the lepton family asymmetries are derived by solving Boltzmann equations. By taking a minimal seesaw model, we show how each family asymmetry varies with a CP violating phase. For instance, we find the case that the lepton asymmetry is dominated by YμY_{\mu} or YτY_{\tau} depending on the choice of the CP violating phase. We also find the case that the signs of lepton family asymmetries YμY_{\mu} and YτY_{\tau} are opposite each other. Their absolute values can be larger than the total lepton asymmetry and the baryon asymmetry may result from the cancellation of the lepton family asymmetries.Comment: 26 pages, 8 figures, ptp.styl

    Neutrino mixing in Seesaw model

    We study the neutrino mixing matrix (the MNS matrix) in the seesaw model. By assuming a large mass hierarchy for the heavy right-handed Majorana mass, we show that, in the diagonal Majorana base, the MNS matrix is determined by a unitary matrix, SS, which transforms the neutrino Yukawa matrix, yνy_{\nu}, into a triangular form, y△y_{\triangle}. The mixing matrix of light leptons is VKMS′∗V_{KM} S^{\prime *}, where VKM≡VLe†VLνV_{KM} \equiv {V_{Le}}^{\dagger} V_{L \nu} %VLeV_{Le} and VLνV_{L\nu} diagonalize %the Yukawa matrices of charged leptons, %yeye†y_e y_e^{\dagger}, and neutrinos, yνyν†y_{\nu} y_{\nu}^{\dagger}, %respectively, and S′∗≡VLν†S∗S^{\prime *} \equiv {V_{L\nu}}^{\dagger} S^*. Large mixing may occur without fine tuning of the matrix elements of y△y_{\triangle} even if the usual KM-like matrix VKMV_{KM} is given by VKM=1V_{KM} =1. This large mixing naturally may satisfy the experimental lower bound of the mixing implied by the atmospheric neutrino oscillation.Comment: 14 pages, 4 figures, PTPTe

    We study lepton flavor number violating rare B decays, b→slh±ll∓b \to s l_h^{\pm} l_l^{\mp}, in a seesaw model with low scale singlet Majorana neutrinos motivated by the resonant leptogenesis scenario. The branching ratios of inclusive decays b→slh±llˉ∓ b \to s l_h^{\pm} \bar{l_l}^{\mp} with two almost degenerate singlet neutrinos at TeV scale are investigated in detail. We find that there exists a class of seesaw model in which the branching fractions of b→sτμ b \to s \tau \mu and τ→μγ\tau \to \mu \gamma can be as large as 10−1010^{-10} and 10−910^{-9} within the reach of Super B factories, respectively, without being in conflict with neutrino mixings and mass squared difference of neutrinos from neutrino data, invisible decay width of ZZ and the present limit of Br(μ→eγ)Br(\mu \to e \gamma).Comment: 19 pages, 6 figure

    An Interesting Fitting of Quark Masses

    Full text link
    In this note we show an empirical formula of quark masses, which is found by implementing a least squares fit. In this formula the measured QCD coupling is almost a "best fitting coupling".Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure

    Leptogenesis and Low energy CP violation, a link

    Get PDF
    How is CP violation of low energy related to CP violation required from baryon number asymmetry ? We give an example which shows a direct link between CP violation of neutrino oscillation and baryogenesis through leptogenesis.Comment: 3 pages and 2 figures, Talk presented at 4th Nufac02, July 1-6, 200
