Minimal Dynamical Inverse See Saw

TL;DR

This paper introduces a minimal dynamical inverse see-saw model where lepton number breaking occurs at two loops, with potential implications for dark matter and collider signatures.

Contribution

It proposes a novel minimal model for inverse see-saw with dynamical lepton number breaking and explores B-L gauging extensions.

Findings

Lepton number breaking term is naturally at keV scale.

Right-handed neutrinos are at TeV scale.

Model predicts potential LHC signatures and a sterile neutrino as dark matter candidate.

Abstract

We present a minimal model in which the Inverse See Saw is realized dynamically. The two unity lepton number breaking term is induced at two-loop level and is naturally around the keV scale, while right-handed neutrinos are at the TeV scale. An interesting extension of the model is obtained by gauging B-L: in this case anomaly cancellation has as direct consequence the presence of a sterile neutrino at the MeV scale that may be a good Dark Matter candidate. Moreover the new gauge boson Z' and the new neutral scalars may have characteristic signatures at LHC.
