We evaluate the baryon number abundance based on the charge transport scenario of top quarks in the CP-violating two Higgs doublet model, in which Yukawa interactions are aligned to avoid dangerous flavor changing neutral currents, and coupling constants of the lightest Higgs boson with the mass 125 GeV coincide with those in the standard model at tree level to satisfy the current LHC data. In this model, the severe constraint from the electric dipole moment of electrons, which are normally difficult to be satisfied, can be avoided by destructive interferences between CP-violating phases in Yukawa interactions and scalar couplings in the Higgs potential. Viable benchmark scenarios are proposed under the current available data and basic theoretical bounds. We find that the observed baryon number can be reproduced in this model, where masses of additional Higgs bosons are typically 300–400 GeV. Furthermore, it is found that the triple Higgs boson coupling is predicted to be 35–55 % larger than the standard model value.

We discuss electroweak baryogenesis in aligned two Higgs doublet models. It is known that in this model the severe constraint from the experimental results for the electron electric dipole moment can be avoided by destructive interference among CP-violating effects in the Higgs sector. In our previous work, we showed that the observed baryon number in the Universe can be explained without contradicting current available data in a specific scenario in the same model. We here first discuss details of the evaluation of baryon number based on the WKB method taking into account all order of the wall velocity. We then investigate parameter spaces which are allowed under the current available data from collider, flavor and electric dipole moment experiments simultaneously. We find several benchmark scenarios which can explain baryon asymmetry of the Universe. We also discuss how we can test these benchmark scenarios at future collider experiments, various flavor experiments and gravitational wave observations.

We study impacts of dimension-five lepton-number violating operators associated with two samesign weak bosons, ℓ ± ℓ ′± W ∓ W ∓ , on current and future experiments for neutrino oscillation, leptonnumber violating rare processes and high-energy collider experiments. These operators can contain important information on the origin of tiny neutrino masses, which is independent of that from the so-called Weinberg operator. We examine constraints on the coefficients of the operators by the neutrino oscillation data. Upper bounds on the coefficients are also investigated by using the data for processes of lepton number violation such as neutrinoless double beta decays and µ − -e + conversion. These operators can also be directly tested by searching for lepton-number violating dilepton production via the same-sign W boson fusion process at high-energy hadron colliders like the Large Hadron Collider. We find that these operators can be considerably probed by these current and future experiments.

The existence of the neutrino mass and flavor mixing have been experimentally verified. These phenomena strongly motivate to extend the Standard Model (SM). Amongst many possibilities, a simple and interesting extension of the SM can be investigated using a general U(1) X extension of the SM gauge group. Demanding the cancellation of the gauge and mixed gauge gravity anomalies, three right handed neutrinos are introduced in this model where the U(1) X charge assignment becomes a linear combination of U(1) B−L and U(1) Y hyper-charges. After the U(1) X breaking, an additional neutral gauge boson, Z is evolved and the neutrino mass is generated by the seesaw mechanism. In such a model we investigate the properties of a Dark Matter (DM) candidate which is a massive weakly interacting particle and Dirac type in nature. The stability of the DM is protected by its U(1) X charge. Using the current bounds on the search results of Z at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the dark matter relic abundance we find a phenomenologically viable parameter space of our scenario.
