Undeniably, today Neutrino Physics has become an important and emerging new field of intense research in Physics around the globe. The accolades received by the Neutrino Physicists speak volume about it. Besides, numerous other prizes, there have been four Nobel Prizes to its credit. The latest being the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physics to Professor TakaakiKajita and Professor Arthur B. Mcdonald for discovery of neutrino oscillations. This important breakthrough discovery which was first declared by Super-KamioKande at the Takayama Conference-NEUTRINO’98, can be termed as the watershed moment in the history of neutrino physics. With this discovery the study of neutrino physics has established a firm foundation. And matter-antimatter asymmetry of the universe is one of the open problems in cosmology. Thus, connecting a low-energy to a high-energy physics is an issue of both particle physicists and cosmologists. Good number of books on neutrino physics have been written, but not on baryogenesis. And importantly, complete detailed books connecting these two beautiful subjects are yet to be written. The present book though not a complete detailed book is a modest attempt in that direction. The book attempts to find out the above unknown properties of neutrinos and study its implications to cosmology.

Neutrino oscillation experiments discover that (left-handed) neutrinos have masses much less than charged leptons and quarks in the Standard Model. One solution to the lightneutrino mass puzzle is the seesaw model where right-handed neutrinos are introduced with large Majorana masses. The heavy Majorana right-handed (RH) neutrinos lead to leptonnumber violation in the early universe. They decay into either leptons or anti-leptons via Yukawa couplings. The CP asymmetries of these decays result in lepton number asymmetry in the universe. The lepton number asymmetry can be converted into baryon number asymmetry via the electroweak sphaleron process. This mechanism explains thebaryon asymmetry of universe problem and is called leptogenesis. However, one?nds that in order to generated enough baryon number in the universe, the reheating temperature, which is required to be of order of the lightest right-handedneutrino mass, has to be higher than? 10 9 GeV. The high reheating temperature would lead to the over-produced gravitinos in the universe, contrasting with the present observation. We investigate leptogenesis in the Exceptional Supersymmetric Standard Model. We?nd that the extra Yukawa couplings would enhance the CP asymmetries of the RH neutrino decay drastically. And the evolution of lepton/baryon asymmetries is described by Boltzmann Equations. Numerical calculation of the Boltzmann Equations shows that a correct amount of baryon number in the universe can be achieved when the lightest right-handed neutrino mass is? 10 7 GeV, and then the gravitino-over-production problem is avoided.

This dissertation studies aspects of three of the biggest unsolved problems with the Standard Model of Particle Physics: the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe, neutrino masses, and dark matter. While the SM has been very successful in explaining most experimental results, it does not provide a satisfactory solution to the matter -- anti-matter asymmetry problem. One of the simplest and most elegant solutions to this problem is electroweak baryogenesis. An addition to the Standard Model of a real, gauge-singlet scalar field, coupled via a Higgs portal interaction, can reopen the possibility of a strongly first-order electroweak phase transition and successful electroweak baryogenesis. In the first part of this work, we study a subset of such models and evaluate the bubble nucleation temperature throughout the parameter space where a first-order transition is expected. In addition, we also look at vacuum bubble wall velocity and how it impacts baryogenesis in these models. Another limitation of the SM is that it models the neutrinos as massless, even though experiments have shown that this is not true. The mass generation mechanism of neutrinos is still unknown, and popular see-saw models with Majorana masses have proven difficult to test. The Clockwork mechanism can be used to generate Dirac masses, and can explain the smallness of neutrino masses without introducing unnaturally small input parameters. In the second part of this thesis, we study the simplest Clockwork neutrino model, the "uniform" clockwork, as well as a broader class of "generalized" clockwork models. We derive constraints on such models from lepton-flavor violating processes, as well as precision electroweak fits. Further, we analyse simulated collider data and study the prospects for detection of the models at the LHC and future colliders. The third and final part of this thesis is about Dark Matter. All the evidence we have for Dark Matter (DM) is through gravitational interactions, and its microscopic nature is one of the most urgent questions in theoretical physics. We present an unconventional model for the production of dark matter: the conformal freeze-in scenario. At the time when the dark sector is populated in the early universe, it is described by a strongly coupled conformal field theory and as such, cannot be described by particle states. As the universe cools, cosmological phase transitions in the standard model sector or loop induced deformations of the conformal field theory induce conformal symmetry breaking and confinement in the dark sector. One of the resulting dark bound states is stable on the cosmological time scales and plays the role of dark matter.

Several of the very foundations of the cosmological standard model — the baryon asymmetry of the universe, dark matter, and the origin of the hot big bang itself — still call for an explanation from the perspective of fundamental physics. This work advocates one intriguing possibility for a consistent cosmology that fills in the theoretical gaps while being fully in accordance with the observational data. At very high energies, the universe might have been in a false vacuum state that preserved B-L, the difference between the baryon number B and the lepton number L as a local symmetry. In this state, the universe experienced a stage of hybrid inflation that only ended when the false vacuum became unstable and decayed, in the course of a waterfall transition, into a phase with spontaneously broken B-L symmetry. This B-L Phase Transition was accompanied by tachyonic preheating that transferred almost the entire energy of the false vacuum into a gas of B-L Higgs bosons, which in turn decayed into heavy Majorana neutrinos. Eventually, these neutrinos decayed into massless radiation, thereby producing the entropy of the hot big bang, generating the baryon asymmetry of the universe via the leptogenesis mechanism and setting the stage for the production of dark matter. Next to a variety of conceptual novelties and phenomenological predictions, the main achievement of the thesis is hence the fascinating notion that the leading role in the first act of our universe might have actually been played by neutrinos.

Reviews the current state of knowledge of neutrino masses and the related question of neutrino oscillations. After an overview of the theory of neutrino masses and mixings, detailed accounts are given of the laboratory limits on neutrino masses, astrophysical and cosmological constraints on those masses, experimental results on neutrino oscillations, the theoretical interpretation of those results, and theoretical models of neutrino masses and mixings. The book concludes with an examination of the potential of long-baseline experiments. This is an essential reference text for workers in elementary-particle physics, nuclear physics, and astrophysics.

This important book presents the proceedings of the conference “Neutrinos and Implications for Physics Beyond the Standard Model”, put on by the Yang Institute for Theoretical Physics, State University of New York at Stony Brook.The observation of neutrino masses and lepton mixing constitutes the first confirmed evidence for physics beyond the Standard Model. This evidence includes the measured deficiency of charged current reactions induced by solar neutrinos and the anomalous zenith angle distribution of atmospheric neutrinos. A profound question now facing theorists is: What do these observations imply for new physics? At the conference, members of the major experiments gave an update on current experimental evidence from solar and atmospheric neutrino data for neutrino oscillations, and status reports from KamLAND and MiniBooNE. Leading theorists also reported on neutrinoless double beta decay, high energy neutrino scattering and precision electroweak data, theoretical models for neutrino masses and lepton mixing, and constraints from neutrino data, etc. Since neutrino physics is at present one of the most exciting areas of particle physics, this volume should be of interest to a wide variety of students and researchers in physics.

This self-contained modern textbook provides a modern description of the Standard Model and its main extensions from the perspective of neutrino physics. In particular it includes a thorough discussion of the varieties of seesaw mechanism, with or without supersymmetry. It also discusses schemes where neutrino mass arises from lighter messengers, which might lie within reach of the world's largest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider. Throughout the text, the book stresses the role of neutrinos due to the fact that neutrino properties may serve as a guide to the correct model of unification, hence for a deeper understanding of high energy physics, and because neutrinos play an important role in astroparticle physics and cosmology. Each chapter includes summaries and set of problems, as well as further reading.
