Leptogenesis, Dark Matter and Gravitational Waves from Discrete Symmetry Breaking

arXiv:2312.15053 · doi:10.1088/1475-7516/2024/06/029

Abstract

We analyse a model that connects the neutrino sector and the dark sector of the universe via a mediator , stabilised by a discrete symmetry that breaks to a remnant upon acquiring a non-zero vacuum expectation value (). The model accounts for the observed baryon asymmetry of the universe via additional contributions to the canonical Type-I leptogenesis. The symmetry breaking scale () in the model not only establishes a connection between the neutrino sector and the dark sector, but could also lead to gravitational wave signals that are within the reach of current and future experimental sensitivities.
