Abstract

Leptoquarks have been proposed as a possible explanation of anomalies in decays, the apparent anomalies in experiments and a violation of lepton universality. Motivated by this, we examine other motivations of leptoquarks: radiatively induced neutrino masses in the presence of a discrete symmetry that prevents a tree level see-saw mechanism, gauge coupling unification, and vacuum stability at least up to the unification scale. We present a new model for radiatively generating a neutrino mass which can significantly improve gauge coupling unification at one loop. We discuss this, and other models in the light of recent work on flavour anomalies.
