A new B − L model without right-handed neutrinos

Abstract: We propose and study a novel extension of the Standard Model based on the B − L gauge symmetry that can account for dark matter and neutrino masses. In this model, right-handed neutrinos are absent and the gauge anomalies are canceled instead by four chiral fermions with fractional B − L charges. After the breaking of U(1) B−L , these fermions arrange themselves into two Dirac particles, the lightest of which is automatically stable and plays the role of the dark matter. We determine the regions of the paramet… Show more

“…(22) with f → f /3 to n α = (−2/3, −2/3, −4/3, −1/3) as used in Ref. [83]. In this way, without lost of generality, we will work with the normalized solution in terms of a single parameter [53][54][55] that we choose to be l, by setting r = 1 as summarized in column U(1) X of Table 2, which is just…”

“…of these four possible combinations, axial vector anomaly [31,32] and gravitational gauge anomaly [33,34] of local B−L symmetric models can be cancelled by the introduction of extra chiral fermions to the SM such as three right handed neutrinos [35] or two left and right handed singlet fermions with appropriate B−L charges [36]. However, unlike the B−L case, the anomaly cancellation does not require any extra chiral fermionic degrees of freedom for the last three cases where the linear combinations of different generational lepton numbers [37][38][39] are considered.…”

“…Very recently, another anomaly free U (1) B−L framework was proposed where the additional right handed fermions possess more exotic B − L charges namely, −4/3, −1/3, −2/3, −2/3 [100]. The triangle anomalies get cancelled as follows.…”
