Abstract

We have studied the correlations among the three absolute neutrino mass observables - the effective Majorana mass ($m_{ee}$) which can be obtained from neutrinoless double beta decay, the electron neutrino mass ($m_{\beta}$) which is measured in single beta decay experiments and the sum of the light neutrino masses ($\Sigma$) which is constrained from cosmological observations, in the context of minimal left-right symmetric model. Two phenomenologically interesting cases of type-I seesaw dominance as well as type-II seesaw dominance have been considered. We have taken into account the independent constraints coming from lepton flavor violation, single $\beta$ decay, cosmology and neutrinoless double beta decay and have determined the combined allowed parameter space that can be probed in the future experiments. We have also analyzed the correlations and tensions between the different mass variables. In addition, the constraints on the masses of the heavy particles coming from lepton flavor violation and the bounds on three absolute neutrino mass observables are also determined. We show that these constraints can rule out some of the parameter space which are not probed by the collider experiments.

Highlights

  • The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics, despite being a highly successful theory in many aspects, has certain limitations, which motivates one to think of scenarios beyond SM

  • We consider the left-right symmetric models (LRSMs) with triplet scalars and from here onwards, we refer to this model as the minimal left-right symmetric model (MLRSM)

  • Another important feature of the MLRSM is that there can be a number of new physics contributions to 0νββ, coming from right-handed neutrinos as well as the Higgs triplets, especially when these particles are at the TeV scale [35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46]

INTRODUCTION

The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics, despite being a highly successful theory in many aspects, has certain limitations, which motivates one to think of scenarios beyond SM. We consider the LRSM with triplet scalars and from here onwards, we refer to this model as the minimal left-right symmetric model (MLRSM) Another important feature of the MLRSM is that there can be a number of new physics contributions to 0νββ, coming from right-handed neutrinos as well as the Higgs triplets, especially when these particles are at the TeV scale [35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46].
