A TeV scale model for neutrino mass, dark matter and baryon asymmetry

TL;DR

This paper proposes a TeV-scale model that simultaneously explains neutrino oscillations, dark matter, and baryon asymmetry through an extended Higgs sector and right-handed neutrinos, with testable predictions.

Contribution

It introduces a novel TeV-scale model with an exact Z2 symmetry that accounts for neutrino masses, dark matter, and baryogenesis in a unified framework.

Findings

Neutrino masses generated at three-loop level

Singlet scalar as dark matter candidate

Strong first-order phase transition for baryogenesis

Abstract

We discuss a TeV scale model which would explain neutrino oscillation, dark matter, and baryon asymmetry of the Universe simultaneously by the dynamics of the extended Higgs sector and TeV-scale right-handed neutrinos with imposed an exact $Z_2$ symmetry. Tiny neutrino masses are generated at the three loop level, a singlet scalar field is a candidate of dark matter, and a strong first order phase transition is realized for successful electroweak baryogenesis. The model provides various discriminative predictions, so that it is testable at the current and future experiments.
