    5.1 5. THE BARYON ASYMMETRYOF THE UNIVERSE The new interactions predicted by most grand unified theories are so weak that they are unobservable in the laboratory, except?possibly in proton decay. Fortunately, there was one time at which the new interac- tions would have been very important: the first instant after the big bang when the universe was incredibly hot and dense. This cosmological "laboratory" may have left relics of the grand unified interactions that are observable today. In particular, the new interactions may be responsible for the observed excess of baryons over antibaryons in the universe (the baryon asymmetry). In this chapter I will outline the status of the baryon asymmetry. For a more detailed discussion, especially of the astrophysical aspects, see the recent detailed studies [5.1-5.21 and reviews c5.3-5.61 of earlier work. Another possible relic of the big bang, superheavy magnetic monopoles, is discussed in Chapter 6. Speculations on other possible connections between grand unifica- tion and cosmology, such as galaxy formation [5.7-5.91 or the role of dissipative phencmena in smoothing the universe [5.9-5.101 are discussed in [5.4-5.5,5.71. The Baryon Excess The two facts that one would like to explain are: (a) our region of the universe contains baryons but essentially no anti- baryons.

  • Estimation of Baryon Asymmetry of the Universe from Neutrino Physics
    ESTIMATION OF BARYON ASYMMETRY OF THE UNIVERSE FROM NEUTRINO PHYSICS Manorama Bora Department of Physics Gauhati University This thesis is submitted to Gauhati University as requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Science March 2018 I would like to dedicate this thesis to my parents . Abstract The discovery of neutrino masses and mixing in neutrino oscillation experiments in 1998 has greatly increased the interest in a mechanism of baryogenesis through leptogenesis, a model of baryogenesis which is a cosmological consequence. The most popular way to explain why neutrinos are massive but at the same time much lighter than all other fermions, is the see-saw mechanism. Thus, leptogenesis realises a highly non-trivial link between two completely independent experimental observations: the absence of antimatter in the observable universe and the observation of neutrino mixings and masses. Therefore, leptogenesis has a built-in double sided nature.. The discovery of Higgs boson of mass 125GeV having properties consistent with the SM, further supports the leptogenesis mechanism. In this thesis we present a brief sketch on the phenomenological status of Standard Model (SM) and its extension to GUT with or without SUSY. Then we review on neutrino oscillation and its implication with latest experiments. We discuss baryogenesis via leptogenesis through the decay of heavy Majorana neutrinos. We also discuss formulation of thermal leptogenesis. At last we try to explore the possibilities for the discrimination of the six kinds of Quasi- degenerate neutrino(QDN)mass models in the light of baryogenesis via leptogenesis. We have seen that all the six QDN mass models are relevant in the context of flavoured leptogenesis.

  • Baryogenesis and Dark Matter from B Mesons
    Baryogenesis and Dark Matter from B mesons Abstract: In [1] a new mechanism to simultaneously generate the baryon asymmetry of the Universe and the Dark Matter abundance has been proposed. The Standard Model of particle physics succeeds to describe many physical processes and it has been tested to a great accuracy. However, it fails to provide a Dark Matter candidate, a so far undetected component of matter which makes up roughly 25% of the energy budget of the Universe. Furthermore, the question arises why there is a more matter (or baryons) than antimatter in the Universe taking into account that cosmology predicts a Universe with equal parts matter and anti-matter. The mechanism to generate a primordial matter-antimatter asymmetry is called baryogenesis. Any successful mechanism for baryogenesis needs to satisfy the three Sakharov conditions [2]: • violation of charge symmetry and of the combination of charge and parity symmetry • violation of baryon number • departure from thermal equilibrium In this paper [1] a new mechanism for the generation of a baryon asymmetry together with Dark Matter production has been proposed. The mechanism proposed to explain the observed baryon asymetry as well as the pro- duction of dark matter is developed around a fundamental ingredient: a new scalar particle Φ. The Φ particle is massive and would dominate the energy density of the Universe after inflation but prior to the Bing Bang nucleosynthesis. The same particle will directly decay, out of thermal equilibrium, to b=¯b quarks and if the Universe is cool enough ∼ O(10 MeV), the produced b quarks can hadronize and form B-mesons.

  • Origin and Evolution of the Universe Baryogenesis
    Physics 224 Spring 2008 Origin and Evolution of the Universe Baryogenesis Lecture 18 - Monday Mar 17 Joel Primack University of California, Santa Cruz Post-Inflation Baryogenesis: generation of excess of baryon (and lepton) number compared to anti-baryon (and anti-lepton) number. in order to create the observed baryon number today it is only necessary to create an excess of about 1 quark and lepton for every ~109 quarks+antiquarks and leptons +antileptons. Other things that might happen Post-Inflation: Breaking of Pecci-Quinn symmetry so that the observable universe is composed of many PQ domains. Formation of cosmic topological defects if their amplitude is small enough not to violate cosmological bounds. There is good evidence that there are no large regions of antimatter (Cohen, De Rujula, and Glashow, 1998). It was Andrei Sakharov (1967) who first suggested that the baryon density might not represent some sort of initial condition, but might be understandable in terms of microphysical laws. He listed three ingredients to such an understanding: 1. Baryon number violation must occur in the fundamental laws. At very early times, if baryon number violating interactions were in equilibrium, then the universe can be said to have “started” with zero baryon number. Starting with zero baryon number, baryon number violating interactions are obviously necessary if the universe is to end up with a non-zero asymmetry. As we will see, apart from the philosophical appeal of these ideas, the success of inflationary theory suggests that, shortly after the big bang, the baryon number was essentially zero. 2. CP-violation: If CP (the product of charge conjugation and parity) is conserved, every reaction which produces a particle will be accompanied by a reaction which produces its antiparticle at precisely the same rate, so no baryon number can be generated.

  • Lesson 8 : Baryogenesis
    Lesson 8 : Baryogenesis Notes from Prof. Susskind video lectures publicly available on YouTube 1 Introduction Baryogenesis means the creation of matter particles. Its study is more specifically concerned with explaining the excess of matter over antimatter in the universe. The conditions which explain the imbalance of particles and antiparticles are called nowadays the Sakharov conditions 1. In the previous chapter, we studied several landmarks in the temperature of the universe. Going backwads in time, we met the decoupling time when the universe become trans- parent. The temperature was about 4000°. Further back at T ≈ 1010 degrees, photons could create electron-positron pairs. Protons had already been created earlier. Even further back at T ≈ 1012 or 1013, photons could create proton-antiproton pairs. More accurately they could create quark-antiquark pairs, because in truth it was too hot for protons to exist as such. But, at that temperature, let’s say by convention that when we talk about a proton we really talk about three quarks. It does not make any difference in the reasonings. 1. Named after Andrei Sakharov (1921 - 1989), Russian nuclear physicist. Sakharov published his work on this in 1967 in Russian and it remained little known until the 1980s. In the meantime, the same conditions were rediscovered in 1980 by Savas Dimopoulos and Leonard Susskind who were trying to answer the question of why the number of photons, which is a measure of the entropy of the universe, exceeds by eight orders of magnitude the number of protons or electrons. Thus for a time the conditions were known in the West as the Dimopoulos-Susskind conditions.

Early Universe (T > 1012 K = 100 MeV): creation and annihilation of quark-antiquark pairs ⇒ n ,n n q q¯ ≈ γ Hence nq nq¯ 9 − 10− nq + nq¯ ∼ How was this excess generated in the course of the cosmological evolution? Sakharov conditions To generate baryon asymmetry, three necessary conditions should be met at the same cosmological epoch: B-violation C-andCP-violation Thermal inequilibrium NB. Reservation: L-violation with B-conservation at T 100 GeV would do as well = Leptogenesis. & ⇒ Can baryon asymmetry be due to electroweak physics?

  • Present Understanding of Solution to Baryonic Asymmetry of the Universe
    Present understanding of solution to baryonic asymmetry of the Universe Present understanding of solution to baryonic asymmetry of the Universe Arnab Dasgupta Centre for Theoretical Physics Jamia Millia Islamia January 6, 2015 Present understanding of solution to baryonic asymmetry of the Universe Motivation for Baryogenesis Types of Baryogenesis Grand Unified Theory (GUT) baryogenesis Leptogenesis Electroweak Barogenesis Affleck-Dine Mechanism Leptogenesis Soft Leptogenesis Conclusion 1. If baryon asymmetry had been an initial condition, it would have been a highly fined tuned one. For every 6000000 anti-quarks there should be 6000001 quarks. 2. And more importantly, we have a good reason to believe from the CMB that there was an era of inflation during early history of the Universe. So, any primodial asymmetry would have been exponentially diluted away by the required amount of inflation. I There are atleast two reasons for believing that the baryons asymmetry has been dynamically generated. Present understanding of solution to baryonic asymmetry of the Universe Motivation for Baryogenesis I Observations indicate that the number of baryons (protons and neutrons) in the Universe in unequal to the numbers of anti-baryons (anti protons and anti- neutrons). 1.
