The near degeneracy of the neutrino masses—a mass symmetry—allows condensed neutrino objects that may be the Dark Matter everybody is looking for. If the KATRIN terrestrial experiment has a neutrino mass signal, it will contradict the analysis of the Planck Satellite Consortium reduction of their raw cosmological microwave data. Using Condensed Neutrino Objects as the Dark Matter along with Coma Galaxy Cluster data, we predict that KATRIN will indeed see a neutrino mass signal. If this physics drama unfolds, there will be profound implications for cosmology, which are discussed in this paper.

The crucial phenomenological and experimental predictions for new physics are outlined, where the number of problems of the Standard Model (neutrino masses and oscillations, dark matter, baryon asymmetry of the Universe, leptonic CP-violation) could find their solutions. The analogies between the cosmological neutrino mass scale from the early universe data and laboratory probes are discussed and the search for new physics and phenomena.

Adding a second scalar doublet (η+, η0) and three neutral singlet fermions N1, 2, 3 to the Standard Model of particle interactions with a new Z2 symmetry, it has been shown that [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] is a good dark-matter candidate and seesaw neutrino masses are generated radiatively. A supersymmetric U(1) gauge extension of this new idea is proposed, which enforces the usual R-parity of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, and allows this new Z2 symmetry to emerge as a discrete remnant.

The well-known leptonic U(1) symmetry of the Standard Model (SM) 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 (DM), as well as radiative neutrino masses. A possible key connection is a color-triplet scalar, which may be produced and detected at the Large Hadron Collider.

We review some recent efforts in determining the absolute neutrino mass scale in cosmology. We illustrate in particular how distance measurements such as the baryon acoustic oscillations and the galaxy weak lensing can break the degeneracy between the neutrino mass and dark energy equation of state parameters.

With the start of the LHC, interest in electroweak scale models for the neutrino mass has grown. In this paper, we review two specific models that simultaneously explain neutrino masses and provide a suitable DM candidate. We discuss the implications of these models for various observations and experiments including the LHC, Lepton Flavor Violating (LFV) rare decays, direct and indirect dark matter searches and kaon decay.

Radiative neutrino mass models have interesting features, which make it possible to relate neutrino masses to the existence of dark matter. However, the explanation of the baryon number asymmetry in the universe seems to be generally difficult as long as we suppose leptogenesis based on the decay of thermal right-handed neutrinos. Since right-handed neutrinos are assumed to have masses of O(1) TeV in these models, they are too small to generate the sufficient lepton number asymmetry. Here we consider Affleck–Dine leptogenesis in a radiative neutrino mass model by using a famous flat direction LHu as an alternative possibility. The constraint on the reheating temperature could be weaker than the ordinary models. The model explains all the origin of the neutrino masses, the dark matter, and also the baryon number asymmetry in the universe.

In the simplest version of a [Formula: see text] flavored supersymmetric model, we analyze the leptonic masses and mixings in the framework of a soft breaking of the [Formula: see text] symmetry. This breaking is controlled by the inequality [Formula: see text] in the effective neutrino mass. As a consequence of this breaking, the reactor and atmospheric angles are deviate from [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively. Such deviations can be enhanced or suppressed by the CP parities in the Majorana phases, so an analytic study is carried out to remark their importance to constrain the free parameters that accommodate the mixing angles. The normal hierarchy is completely discarded in this model, the inverted hierarchy is less favored than the degenerate one where the reactor and atmospheric angles are in good agreement with the experimental data. Additionally, the model predicts defined regions for the effective neutrino mass decay, the neutrino mass scale and the sum of the neutrino masses in the inverted and degenerate mass spectra. Thus, this model may be testable by future experiments that focus on neutrinoless double beta decay.

Abstract We study the connection between absolute neutrino mass and neutrino mixing parameters within SO(10)-inspired leptogenesis. We show that current favoured values of the unknown neutrino mixing parameters point toward values of the absolute neutrino mass scale that will be fully tested by cosmological observations and neutrinoless double beta decay experiments during next years. In particular, for mD2/mcharm≤ 5, where mD2 is the intermediate Dirac neutrino mass, and for current best fit values of the Dirac phase δ and the atmospheric mixing angle θ23, we derive a lower bound on the neutrinoless double beta decay effective neutrino mass mee ≳ 31 meV and on the sum of the neutrino masses Σimi ≳ 125 meV. These lower bounds hold for normally ordered neutrino masses, as currently favoured by global analyses, and approximately for δ ∈ [155°, 240°] and θ23 in the second octant. If values in this region will be confirmed by future planned long baseline experiments, then a signal at next generation neutrinoless double beta decay experiments is expected, despite neutrino masses being normally ordered. Outside the region, the lower bounds strongly relax but a great fraction of the allowed range of values still allows a measurement of the lightest neutrino mass. Therefore, in the next years low energy neutrino experiments will provide a stringent test of SO(10)-inspired leptogenesis, that might result either in severe constraints or in a strong evidence.

Abstract Sum rules in the lepton sector provide an extremely valuable tool to classify flavour models in terms of relations between neutrino masses and mixing parameters testable in a plethora of experiments. In this manuscript we identify new leptonic sum rules arising in models with modular symmetries with residual symmetries. These models simultaneously present neutrino mass sum rules, involving masses and Majorana phases, and mixing sum rules, connecting the mixing angles and the Dirac CP-violating phase. The simultaneous appearance of both types of sum rules leads to some non-trivial interplay, for instance, the allowed absolute neutrino mass scale exhibits a dependence on the Dirac CP-violating phase. We derive analytical expressions for these novel sum rules and present their allowed parameter ranges as well as their predictions at upcoming neutrino experiments.
