Vacuum Solutions of Neutrino Anomalies Through a Softly Broken U(1) symmetry
Anjan S. Joshipura, Saurabh D. Rindani
Abstract
We discuss an extended SU(2)XU(1) model which naturally leads to mass scales and mixing angles relevant for understanding both the solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies in terms of the vacuum oscillations of the three known neutrinos. The model uses a softly broken Le-Lμ-Lτ symmetry and contains a heavy scale MH 1015 GeV. The Le-Lμ-Lτ symmetric neutrino masses solve the atmospheric neutrino anomaly while breaking of Le-Lμ-Lτ generates highly suppressed radiative mass scale ΔS 10-10 eV2 needed for the vacuum solution of the solar neutrino problem. All the neutrino masses in the model are inversely related to MH, thus providing seesaw-type of masses without invoking any heavy right-handed neutrinos. Possible embedding of the model into an SU(5) grand unified theory is discussed.
