Baryogenesis in SU(2)L multiplet models
摘要
We investigate baryogenesis in Standard Model (SM) extensions with new SU(2)L multiplet fields. We focus on sphalerogenesis, in which the baryon asymmetry of the Universe (BAU) is generated through the gradual decoupling of CP-violating electroweak sphaleron-like processes. We show that the observed BAU can be reproduced when the new fields possess CP-violating Yukawa interactions, which leave a CP-violating dimension-six operator involving the SU(2)L gauge fields at low energies. As representative examples, we study models with fermionic SU(2)L quintuplets and septuplets, and find that these field masses should be
