The gauged $B - L$ symmetry is one of the simplest and well studied extension of standard model. In the conventional case, addition of three singlet right handed neutrinos each transforming as $-1$ under the $B - L$ symmetry renders it anomaly free. It is usually assumed that the $B - L$ symmetry is spontaneously broken by a singlet scalar having two units of $B - L$ charge, resulting in a natural implementation of Majorana seesaw mechanism for neutrinos. However, as we discuss in this…

### Systematic analysis of Dirac neutrino masses from a dimension five operator

• Physics
Physical Review D
• 2018
We perform a systematic study of the Dirac neutrino masses which arise from a dimension five effective operator with a singlet scalar. We identify all possible realizations of this operator at tree

A bstractThe Inverse Seesaw naturally explains the smallness of neutrino masses via an approximate B − L symmetry broken only by a correspondingly small parameter. In this work the possible dynamical

### Inverse seesaw in A′_5 modular symmetry

We make an investigation of modular Γ′5 ≃ A′5 group in inverse seesaw framework. Modular symmetry is advantageous because it reduces the usage of extra scalar ﬁelds signiﬁcantly. Moreover, the

### Naturally small Dirac neutrino mass with intermediate SU(2)L multiplet fields

• Physics
• 2017
A bstractIf neutrinos are Dirac fermions, certain new physics beyond the standard model should exist to account for the smallness of neutrino mass. With two additional scalars and a heavy

The radiative type-I seesaw has been already implemented to explain the lightness of Majorana neutrinos with both Majorana and Dirac heavy fermions, and the lightness of Dirac neutrinos with Dirac

We present an $A_4$ flavor extended $\rm B-L$ model for realization of eV scale sterile neutrinos, motivated by the recent experimental hints from both particle physics and cosmology. The framework

In this paper, a followup of arXiv: 1802.05722, we describe the many pathways to generate Dirac neutrino mass through dimension-6 operators. By using only the Standard Model Higgs doublet in the

### Quasi-Dirac neutrinos in a model with local B - L symmetry

• Physics
• 2011
In a model with B − L gauge symmetry, right-handed neutrinos may have exotic local B − L charge assignments: two of them with B − L = −4 and the other one having B − L = 5. Then, it is natural to

### Gauge Trimming of Neutrino Masses

• 2007
We show that under a new U(1) gauge symmetry, which is non-anomalous in the presence of one ''right-handed neutrino'' per generation and consistent with the standard model Yukawa couplings, the most

### New U(1) gauge symmetry of quarks and leptons

Instead of anchoring the seesaw mechanism with the conventional heavy right-handed neutrino singlet, a small Majorana neutrino mass may be obtained just as well with the addition of a heavy triplet

### Leptogenesis with Lepton-Number-Violating Dirac Neutrinos

Dirac neutrinos with lepton-number-violating interactions can give rise to a new leptogenesis mechanism. In its simplest renormalizable realization, based on a gauged B-L symmetry spontaneously
