Super-weakly coupled U(1)$_z$ and GeV neutrinos

Abstract

The $super$-$weak$ force combines three simple extensions of the Standard Model, one in gauge sector, one in fermion sector and one in scalar sector. Each of these extensions are well motivated by their rich phenomenology. Combined to a single framework, they can explain several open questions in particle physics and cosmology: the origin of dark matter, cosmic inflation, matter-antimatter asymmetry, neutrino masses and vacuum stability. We discuss the effects of the model on neutrino masses and phenomenology in the case where the heaviest sterile neutrinos have a GeV scale mass.
