A three-loop radiative neutrino mass model with dark matter

TL;DR

This paper introduces a three-loop radiative neutrino mass model that links neutrino masses with dark matter, predicting a massless lightest neutrino and potential signals in future collider experiments.

Contribution

The model uniquely generates neutrino masses at three-loop level with a stable dark matter candidate, connecting neutrino physics and dark matter phenomenology.

Findings

Dark matter mass range: 50-135 GeV

Normal neutrino mass hierarchy favored

Potential for detection in future e+e- colliders

Abstract

We present a model that generates small neutrino masses at three-loop level due to the existence of Majorana fermionic dark matter, which is stabilized by a Z2 symmetry. The model predicts that the lightest neutrino is massless. We show a prototypical parameter choice allowed by relevant experimental data, which favors the case of normal neutrino mass spectrum and the dark matter with m \sim 50-135 GeV and a sizable Yukawa coupling. It means that new particles can be searched for in future e+e- collisions.
