Scalar sextet in the 331 model with right-handed neutrinos

Abstract: A Higgs sextet is introduced in order to generate Dirac and Majorana neutrino masses in the 331 model with right-handed neutrinos. As will be seen, the present sextet introduction leads to a rich neutrino mass structure. The smallness of neutrino masses can be achieved via, for example, a seesaw limit. The fact that the masses of the charged leptons are not effected by their new Yukawa couplings to the sextet is convenient for generating small neutrino masses.Comment: RevTeX4, 5 pages, no figure.

“…[819] for details. The 3-3-1 models [826][827][828][829] are distinct SM gauge extensions which can naturally contain RH neutrinos at keV scale [830][831][832][833]. These models belong to a class of constructions where the SM gauge symmetry SU (2) L × U (1) Y is extended to SU (3) L × U (1) X in such a way that the cancellation of the anomalies involves all three families, offering an explanation for the long standing family number problem [826,[834][835][836].…”

“…The idea is to verify if the model fulfills the conditions that may lead to the discovery of RHNs. This model performs the type-I seesaw mechanism in a very peculiar way since the mass matrix of the RHNs and of the standard ones, both, involves the same Yukawa couplings [10][11][12]. This guarantee that the heaviest RHN has mass of 1 TeV or less, which are accessible kinematically at the future LHC.…”

“…In general depending on: the number of scalar triplets, on discrete symmetries and on the VEV structure, the model could have, or not, FCNC in all charged sectors, and the mixing matrix in the couplings with W could be, or not, exactly the same as in the SM. An scalar sextet can also be introduced in order to have more space to generate neutrino masses [15,20].…”
