One Right-handed Neutrino to Generate Complete Neutrino Mass Spectrum in the Framework of NMSSM
The see-saw mechanism is usually applied to explain the lightness of
neutrinos. The traditional see-saw mechanism introduces at least two
right-handed neutrinos for the realistic neutrino spectrum. In the case of
supersymmetry, loop corrections can also contribute to neutrino masses, which
lead to the possibility to generate the neutrino spectrum by introducing just
one right-handed neutrino. To be realistic, MSSM suffers from the mu problem
and other phenomenological difficulties, so we extend NMSSM (the MSSM with a
singlet S) by introducing one single right-handed neutrino superfield (N) and
relevant phenomenology is discussedComment: 20 pages, 7 figure
Thermally modified sterile neutrino portal dark matter and gravitational waves from phase transition: The Freeze-in case
We consider the thermal effects into the evaluation of the dark matter
production process. With the assistance of the right handed neutrinos, the
freeze-in massive particle dark matter production history can be modified by
the two-step phase transitions. The kinematic of decay/inverse decay or
annihilation processes can be affected by the finite temperature effects as the
Universe cools down. The history of the symmetry respected by the model can be
revealed by the DM relic abundance evolution processes. The strong first order
electroweak phase transition generated gravitational waves can be probed. The
number of extra scalars for the Hierarchy problem can be probed through the
Higgs off-shell searches at the LHC.Comment: 32 pages, 10 figures, comments welcom
