2 Introduction CP violation in quark sector not sufficient to explain the observed matter -anti-matter asymmetry of the Universe t n b /s = (.87 ±.4) 1 1, Neutrino oscillation opens up the possibility that CP violation in the lepton sector may be responsible for the observed BAU Relating leptogenesis with low energy CP violation is generally not possible due to the additional phases and mixing angles in the RH neutrino sector

3 Introduction CP violation at high energy: L = l Li iγ µ µ l Li + e Ri iγ µ µ e Ri + N Ri iγ µ µ N Ri +f ij e Ri l Lj H + h ij N Ri l Lj H 1 2 M ijn Ri N Rj + h.c.

M k k Majorana mass matrix: symmetric 3 families: 6-3 = 3 physical phases; 3 mixing angles

4 Introduction In minimal left-right symmetric model, there exist very strong correlations between these high (1 16 GeV) and low energy processes M.-C. C & K.T. Mahanthappa, Phys. Rev. D71, 351 (25) two intrinsic phases if CP broken spontaneously left-right parity relate LH and RH Majorana mass matrices

5 Minimal LR Model Gauge symmetry: SU(3) C SU(2) L SU(2) R U(1) BL P SU(3) C SU(2) L U(1) Y Q=T 3,L +T 3,R (BL) Particle content: Fermions: Q i,l = u d i,l ~(1/2,,1/3) Q i,r = u d i,r ~(,1/2,1/3) L i,l = e i,l ~(1/2,, 1) L i,r = e i,r ~(,1/2, 1) Scalars: = ~(1/2,1/2, ) R = R R R R ~(,1, +2) L = L L L L ~(1,, +2) Under parity P: L R, L R, +

6 In general, = ei 'e i ', L = L e i, L R = R e i R To get SM gauge boson masses, bi-doublet VEV s satisfy The two triplet VEV s related by sol is seesaw suppressed 2 +' 2 2m W 2 /g 2 (174GeV) 2 L = 2 R Small neutrino masses:r~ 1 15 GeV;L~.1 ev precision EW constraints OK

7 The Lagrangian is invariant under unitary transformations The fields transform as: U L = ei L, U e i L R = ei R e i R L U L L, R U R R U R U + L, L U L L U + L, R U + R R U R e i( L R ), ''e i( L R ) L L e 2i L, R R e 2i R Under these unitary transformations, we can rotate away two phases and are left with only two intrinsic phases = 'e i, ' L = L e i, L R = R

8 Yukawa sector: quarks L q =Q i,r (F ij +G ij )Q j,l +h.c. where = 2 2 mass matrices M u =F ij +G ij 'e i ', M d =F ij 'e i ' +G ij all Yukawa couplings real due to spontaneous CP violation responsible for all CP violation in quark sector satisfy FCNC constraints in quark sector requires a large hierarchy in bi-doublet VEV s /'m t /m b >>1

9 Lepton sector: L l =Li,R(P ij +R ij )L j,l + f ij (L T i,l L L j,l +L T i,r R L j,r )+h.c. M e =P ij 'e i ' +R ij M Dirac =P ij +R ij 'e i ', M LL = f ij v L e i L, M RR = f ij v R, M LL M LR T M LR M RR H H L R R L SU(2) L SU(2) R U(1) BL R SU(2) L U(1) Y f R ew U(1) EM f L h ew h ew f R H L L H L

24 Leptocratic Model with N=3 RH neutrinos, rational solutions for charges UV cutoff is at ~ a TeV quark charges flavor blind; lepton charges flavor dependent neutrinos can either be Dirac (only Dirac masses are allowed) or Majorana (Dirac, LH Majorana and RH Majorana masses are all allowed) bi-large mixing pattern can arise exist light quasi-sterile neutrinos, might be relevant for cosmology coupling to Z : probing neutrino sector at colliders

25 Conclusions In minimal LR model, there are only two intrinsic phases that account for all observed CP violation in nature, provided CP is broken spontaneously Due to parity in the model, LH and RH neutrino Majorana mass terms are proportional pronounced correlation between leptogenesis and low energy leptonic CP violation CP violation in quark sector and in lepton sector related if seesaw scale is low; such low scale seesaw can be achieved with an additional U(1) symmetry
