Flavour always matters in scalar triplet leptogenesis

Abstract: We present a flavour-covariant formalism for scalar triplet leptogenesis, which takes into account the effects of the different lepton flavours in a consistent way. Our main finding is that flavour effects can never be neglected in scalar triplet leptogenesis, even in the temperature regime where all charged lepton Yukawa interactions are out of equilibrium. This is at variance with the standard leptogenesis scenario with heavy Majorana neutrinos. In particular, the so-called single flavour approximation leads… Show more

“…which is the equation of the single-flavor approximation in the same limit. Flavor effects also tend to become relatively less important in the opposite limit λ 1 (corresponding to B B φ ), because the lepton flavor asymmetries are more efficiently washed out than for smaller values of λ , and the asymmetry generated in the Higgs sector becomes the dominant source of the final baryon-to-photon ratio [128,134]. Figure 8 shows the dependence of the generated baryon asymmetry on λ and M ∆ for Ansatz 1 (left panel) and Ansatz 2 (right panel).…”

“…I seesaw neutrino mass, by fixing the Higgs mixing angle β = π 4 and calculate the CP asymmetry by using Eq. (41). We show the variation of this coupling with the CP asymmetry in Fig 6, from which one can infer that for low values of the Yukawa couplings the CP asymmetry turns out to be very small.…”

“…Even if we consider triplet decay contribution to leptogenesis, successful leptongenesis demands the triplet mass to be heavier than around 10 11 GeV. 71 It will be interesting and worth pursuing to constrain the Majorana phases simultaneously from two or more different observables and we leave such a study to future investigations.…”
