Pathways to Naturally Small Neutrino Masses

Open access
Ma, Ernest·1998·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

In the minimal standard electroweak gauge model, there is an effective dimension-five operator which generates neutrino masses, and it has only three tree-level realizations. One is the canonical seesaw mechanism with a right-handed neutrino. Another is having a heavy Higgs triplet as recently proposed. The third is to have a heavy Majorana fermion triplet, an example of which is presented here in the context of supersymmetric $\mathrm{SU}(5)$ grand unification. The three generic one-loop realizations of this operator are also discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
