Natural Mass Generation for the Sterile Neutrino
arXiv:hep-ph/0008110 · doi:10.1016/S0370-2693(00)01030-3
Abstract
We point out that there is a serious cosmological problem in the supersymmetric standard model if a sterile neutrino is responsible for the solar neutrino oscillation, and propose a possible solution to this problem. We show that our solution induces naturally a mass of order 10^{-4} eV for the sterile neutrino, which is deeply related to the mechanism of supersymmetry breaking.
