Abstract We propose a simple extension to the Standard Model, wherein neutrinos naturally attain small Majorana masses through one-loop radiative mechanism featuring particles within loops characterized by milli-charges. Unlike conventional scotogenic model, our approach avoids imposing discrete symmetry or expanding gauge sector. The minuscule electric charges ensure stability of lightest particle loop as viable dark matter candidate. systematically investigate for both, freeze-in and...
We present a novel framework that provides an explanation to the long-standing excess of electronlike events in MiniBooNE experiment at Fermilab. suggest new dark sector containing neutrino and gauge boson, both with masses between few tens hundreds MeV. Dark neutrinos are produced via neutrino-nucleus scattering, followed by their decay which turn gives rise events. This mechanism excellent fit energy spectra angular distributions.
Models of radiative Majorana neutrino masses require new scalars and/or fermions to induce lepton number violating interactions. We show that these particles also generate observable nonstandard interactions (NSI) with matter. classify models as type-I or II, containing at least one Standard Model (SM) particle inside the loop diagram generating mass, and type-II having no SM loop. While do not tree-level NSI, popular which fall under category are shown, somewhat surprisingly, NSI...

We propose a framework that addresses the origin of neutrino mass, explains observed discrepancies in electron and muon anomalous magnetic moments (AMMs) data, incorporates dark matter (DM) relic abundance. Both mass lepton AMMs are generated at one-loop level mediated by common set beyond Standard Model (SM) states. In this class models, SM is extended with vectorlike charged fermion scalar multiplets, all odd under an imposed ${\mathcal{Z}}_{2}$ symmetry, which stabilizes fermionic or DM...

In addition, so-called $\mu$-term is dynamically generated technically natural in framework. As...

The XENON1T collaboration recently reported an excess in electron recoil events the energy range between $1-7\,\mathrm{keV}$. This could be understood to originate from known solar neutrino flux, if neutrinos couple a light vector-mediator with strength $g_{\nu N}$ that kinetically mixes photon $\chi$, and N}\chi\sim10^{-13}$. Here, we show such coupling values can naturally arise renormalizable model of long-range vector-mediated self-interactions. discriminated other explanations by...
We present a simple extension of the Standard Model that leads to renormalizable long-range vector-mediated neutrino self-interactions. This model can resolve Hubble tension by delaying onset free-streaming during recombination, without conflicting with other measurements. The extended gauge, scalar, and sectors lead observable signatures, including invisible Higgs $Z$ decays, thereby relating precision measurements at LHC future colliders. has new neutrinophilic gauge boson...
