We build an extended two Higgs doublet model theory with spontaneously broken $U(1) _{X}$ global symmetry, where the tree-level universal seesaw mechanism generates the mass hierarchy of the Standard Model charged fermions and the Zee–Babu mechanism produces tiny active neutrino masses. The third family of SM charged fermions gets tree-level masses...

We present a gauged baryon number model as an example of models where all new fermions required to cancel out the anomalies help to solve phenomenological problems of the standard model (SM). Dark fermion doublets, along with the isosinglet charged fermions, in conjunction with a set of SM-singlet fermions, participate in the generation of small ne...
In noncommutative geometry (NCG) the spectral action principle predicts the standard model (SM) particle masses by constraining the scalar and Yukawa couplings at some heavy scale, but gives an inconsistent value for the Higgs mass. Nevertheless, the scalar sector in the NCG approach to the standard model, is in general composed of two Higgs double...

We present 48 types of solutions to the anomaly cancellation conditions of local Abelian extensions of the Standard Model (SM) with right-handed SM-singlet chiral fermions. At least two of them acquire effective light Dirac neutrino masses, while the others get heavy masses from the spontaneous symmetry breaking of the local Abelian symmetry, formi...

We perform a systematic analysis of Standard Model extensions with an additional anomaly-free gauge U (1) symmetry, to generate tree-level Dirac neutrino masses. An anomaly-free symmetry demands nontrivial conditions on the charges of the unavoidable new states. An intensive scan was performed, looking for solutions generating neutrino masses by th...

The Zee model for Dirac neutrinos is one of the simplest models featuring one-loop Dirac neutrino masses.

Neutrinos may be Dirac particles of which the masses arise radiatively at one loop, naturally explaining their small values. In this work, we show that all the one-loop realizations of the dimension-5 operator to effectively generate Dirac neutrino masses can be implemented by using a single local symmetry: U(1)B−L. Since this symmetry is anomalous...
We propose a simple scenario in which dark matter (DM) emerges as a stable neutral hadronic thermal relic, its stability following from an exact U(1)D symmetry. Neutrinos pick up radiatively induced Majorana masses from the exchange of colored DM constituents. There is a common origin for both dark matter and neutrino mass, with a lower bound for n...
We propose a new extension of the Standard Model by a U(1)B−L gauge symmetry in which the anomalies are canceled by two right-handed neutrinos plus four chiral fermions with fractional B−L charges. Two scalar fields that break the B−L symmetry and give masses to the new fermions are also required. After symmetry breaking, two neutrinos acquire Majo...

In order to analyze some low energy experimental anomalies, we charge with a non-universal $U(1)'$ gauge symmetry the standard model fermions, taking as a starting point the well-known scotogenic model. In order to have non-trivial solutions to the anomalies and the Yukawa constraints, we add three neutral singlet Dirac fermions. We have found two...
We study the LHC sensitivity to a W′ produced via bottom and charm quarks and decaying to τ flavor leptons in the mass range 200–1000 GeV. We show that the extra b quarks necessitated by the production mechanism can improve the background rejection compared to an inclusive analysis relying solely on τ tagging and ETmiss. We present prospective limi...

We study the LHC sensitivity to a $W'$ produced via bottom and charm quarks and decaying to $\tau$ flavor leptons in the mass range 200-1000 GeV. We show that the extra $b$ quarks necessitated by the production mechanism can improve the background rejection compared to an inclusive analysis relying solely on $\tau$-tagging and $E_{T}^{\text{miss}}$...
We propose a simple theory for the idea that cosmological dark matter (DM) may be present today mainly in the form of stable neutral hadronic thermal relics. In our model neutrino masses arise radiatively from the exchange of colored DM constituents, giving a common origin for both dark matter and neutrino mass. The exact conservation of $B-L$ symm...

In this paper we probe inert Higgs doublet model at the LHC using Vector Boson Fusion (VBF) search strategy. We optimize the selection cuts and investigate the parameter space of the model and we show that the VBF search has a better reach when compared with the monojet searches. We also investigate the Drell-Yan type cuts and show that they can be...

The observation of neutrino oscillations establishes that neutrinos ($\nu_{\ell}$) have non-zero mass and provides one of the more compelling arguments for physics beyond the standard model (SM) of particle physics.

The well-known leptonic U(1) symmetry of the standard model of quarks and leptons is extended to include a number of new fermions and scalars. The resulting theory has an invisible QCD axion (thereby solving the strong CP problem), a candidate for weak-scale dark matter, as well as radiative neutrino masses. A possible key connection is a color-tri...

We study a left right (LR) extension of the Standard Model (SM) where the Dark Matter (DM) candidate is composed of a set of fermionic Majorana triplets. The DM is stabilized by a remnant $Z_{2}$ symmetry from the breaking of the LR group to the SM. Two simple scenarios where the DM particles plus a certain set of extra fields lead to gauge couplin...

We analyze the present bounds of a scotogenic model, the Radiative Type III Seesaw (RSIII), in which an additional scalar doublet and at least two fermion triplets of $SU(2)_L$ are added to the Standard Model (SM). In the RSIII the new physics (NP) sector is odd under an exact global $Z_2$ symmetry. This symmetry guaranties that the lightest NP neu...

The singlet-doublet fermion dark matter model (SDFDM) provides a good DM candidate as well as the possibility of generating neutrino masses radiatively. The search and identification of DM requires the combined effort of both indirect and direct DM detection experiments in addition to the LHC. Remarkably, an excess of GeV gamma rays from the Galact...

We study a realization of the topology of the Zee model for the generation of
neutrino masses at one-loop with a minimal set of vector-like fermions. After
imposing an exact $Z_2$ symmetry to avoid tree-level Higgs-mediated flavor
changing neutral currents, one dark matter candidate is obtained from the
subjacent inert doublet model, but with the p...
The ATLAS collaboration (and also CMS) has recently reported an excess over
Standard Model expectations for gauge boson pair production in the invariant
mass region $1.8-2.2$ TeV. In the light of these results, we argue that such
signal might be the first manifestation of the production and further decay of
a heavy CP-even Higgs resulting from a ty...
By extending the SM with two scalar singlets, a vector-like fermion doublet and a fermion singlet, all odd under a Z2 symmetry, it is possible to explain the correct dark matter relic density and also fulfill the main constraints for neutrino physics. In this work, we only consider the case of fermionic dark matter. We study the parameter space, fi...
We construct and analyze non-supersymmetric SO(10) standard model extensions
which explain dark matter (DM) through the fermionic Higgs portal. In these
SO(10)-based models the DM particle is naturally stable since a $Z_2$ discrete
symmetry, the matter parity, is left at the end of the symmetry breaking chain
to the standard model. Potentially real...

When the singlet-doublet fermion dark matter model is extended with
additional $Z_2$--odd real singlet scalars, neutrino masses and mixings can be
generated at one-loop level. In this work, we discuss the salient features
arising from the combination of the two resulting simplified dark matter
models. When the $Z_2$-lightest odd particle is a scala...
We provide a list of particle physics models at the TeV-scale that are compatible with neutrino masses and dark matter. In these models, the Standard Model particle content is extended with a small number (≤ 4) of scalar and fermion fields transforming as singlets, doublets or triplets under SU(2), and neutrino masses are generated radiatively via...
Supersymmetric scenarios with R-parity conservation are becoming very constrained due to the lack of missing energy signals associated to heavy neutral particles, thus motivating scenarios with R-parity violation. In view of this, we consider a supersymmetric model with R-parity violation and extended by an anomalous horizontal U(1)H symmetry. A se...
In bilinear R-parity violation (BRpV), in which the superpotential includes a bilinear term between the lepton doublet and the up-type Higgs superfields, a sneutrino LSP can decay into pairs of heavy standard model states (Ws, Zs, tops or Higgs bosons), neutrinos or different-flavor charged lepton modes (l

). These finals states can dominate...
By extending the Standard Model with three right-handed neutrinos (N_i) and a
second Higgs doublet (H_2), odd under a Z_2 symmetry, it is possible to explain
non-zero neutrino masses and to account for the dark matter. We consider the
case where the dark matter is a scalar and study its coannihilations with the
right-handed neutrinos. These coannih...

bilinear term between the lepton doublet and the up-type Higgs superfields, a
sneutrino LSP can decay into pairs of heavy standard model states: W's, Z's,

considered bottom pair final state. Thi...
Motivated by the upcoming Higgs analyses, we investigate the importance of the complementarity of the Higgs boson chase on the low-mass weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) search in direct detection experiments and the gamma-ray emission from the Galactic Center measured by the Fermi-LAT telescope in the context of the SU(3)c⊗SU(3)L⊗U(1)N.

Supersymmetric models with bilinear R-parity violation (BRPV) can account for
the observed neutrino masses and mixing parameters indicated by neutrino
oscillation data. We consider minimal supergravity versions of BRPV where the
lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) is a neutralino. This is unstable, with
a large enough decay length to be detected...
The most commonly used parameterizations of the Yukawa couplings in the two
Higgs doublet model are revisited. Their similitudes and differences are
emphasized and relations between the different notations used in the literature
are derived. Using these relations, bounds on the space of parameters of the
charged Higgs sector of the two Higgs double...
We present a SU(5)×U(1)F
supersymmetric model for neutrino masses and mixings that implements the seesaw mechanism by means of the heavy SU(2) singlets and triplets states contained in three adjoints of SU(5). We discuss how Abelian U(1)F
symmetries can naturally yield non-hierarchical light neutrinos even when the heavy states are strongly hierarc...
