我们提出了一种轻子发生机制,其中宇宙的非零B-L是在非平衡、轻子数和违反cp的散射过程中产生的,这些散射过程将普通粒子转化为某些隐藏扇区的粒子。特别地,我们考虑了由跷跷板机制的重Majorana中微子N介导的l phi- >l(')phi('),l macro(')phi(‘)过程,其中l和phi是普通轻子和希格斯双重子,l (’), phi(')是它们的隐藏对偶。即使再热温度远小于重中微子质量,这种轻生机制也是有效的。特别是,它可以低至10(9)GeV。
We propose a leptobaryogenesis mechanism in which the nonzero B-L of the Universe is produced in out-of-equilibrium, lepton number and CP-violating scattering processes that convert ordinary particles into particles of some hidden sector. In particular, we consider the processes l phi-->l(')phi('),l macro(')phi(') mediated by the heavy Majorana neutrinos N of the seesaw mechanism, where l and phi are ordinary lepton and Higgs doublets and l('), phi(') are their hidden counterparts. Such a leptogenesis mechanism is effective even if the reheat temperature is much smaller than the heavy neutrino masses. In particular, it can be as low as 10(9) GeV.
