Mirror matter and heavy singlet neutrino oscillations in the early universe
arXiv:hep-ph/0003072 · doi:10.1016/S0370-2693(00)00319-1
Abstract
We investigate the mixing of heavy gauge singlet neutrinos in a mirror matter model employing the seesaw mechanism. The parameter constraints that must be satisfied to prevent the overproduction of mirror matter in the early universe are deduced. We find that no fine tuning in the heavy neutral fermion sector is required for this mirror matter model to satisfy cosmological constraints. Baryogenesis scenarios are briefly discussed in the context of the mirror model.
