额外维中的脂肪膜与跷跷板机制

Fat brane and seesaw mechanism in extra dimensions

Bjorn Garbrecht, Ricardo G. Landim

摘要:

在本文中,我们提出了一个高维跷跷板机制。我们考虑一个单一的,平坦的额外的维度,脂肪膜是本地化的,并包含标准模型(SM)的领域,类似于通用额外的维度模型。在体中只有一个狄拉克费米子,在四维空间中,它会产生两个卡鲁扎-克莱因(KK)马约拉纳无菌中微子塔,由于膜定域动力学项,它们与SM中微子的质量混合被抑制。无菌中微子和SM之间的相互作用是通过通常的与希格斯玻色子的耦合,其中耦合取决于紧化半径$R^{-1}=10^{-2}-1$ GeV和胖膜的宽度$L^{-1}=2$ TeV,其中选择后者的值是为了避免LHC的约束。由于这种抑制机制,最轻的无菌中微子的质量可以是$\mathcal{O}(1-10)$ ~ \text{TeV}量级,同时自然地解释了小的SM中微子质量,这反过来又很容易在大范围的参数选择下获得。此外,中微子振荡基本上不受无菌KK粒子塔的影响。最后,leptogenesis在此设置进行了研究,它是可行的参数空间内的一些值。

英文摘要:

In this paper we present a higher-dimensional seesaw mechanism. We consider a single, flat extra dimension, where a fat brane is localized and contains the standard model (SM) fields, similar to Universal Extra Dimension models. There is only one Dirac fermion in the bulk, and in four dimensions it results in two towers of Kaluza-Klein (KK) Majorana sterile neutrinos, whose mass mixing with the SM neutrinos is suppressed due to a brane-localized kinetic term. The interaction between the sterile neutrinos and the SM is through the usual coupling with the Higgs boson, where the coupling depends upon the compactification radius $R^{-1}=10^{-2}-1$ GeV and the width of the fat brane $L^{-1}=2$ TeV, where the latter value is chosen to avoid LHC constraints. Due to this suppression mechanism the mass of the lightest sterile neutrinos can be of order $\mathcal{O}(1-10)$~\text{TeV} while naturally explaining the small SM neutrino mass, which in turn is easily obtained for a large range of parameter choices. Furthermore, neutrino oscillations are not substantially influenced by the tower of sterile KK particles. Finally, leptogenesis is investigated in this setup, and it is viable for some values within the parameter space.
