Leptonic flavour mixing influenced by flavon cross couplings (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zhou, Y.-L. (2017, September). Leptonic flavour mixing influenced by flavon cross couplings. Presented at The XXVII International Conference on Neutrino Physics and Astrophysics (Neutrino 2016), London, England

We develop an economical approach to connect flavon cross couplings with flavour mixing. A non-zero reactor mixing angle and almost maximal CP violation arise from cross couplings between flavons in the charged lepton and neutrino sectors. Within thi...

Creating the Baryon Asymmetry from Lepto-Bubbles (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pascoli, S., Turner, J., Zhou, Y.-L., Lodovico, F. D., Pascoli, S., & Ballett, P. (2017, December). Creating the Baryon Asymmetry from Lepto-Bubbles. Presented at Prospects in Neutrino Physics (NuPhys2016), London

We propose a new mechanism of baryogenesis which proceeds via a CP-violating phase transition. During this phase transition, the coupling of the Weinberg operator is dynamically realised and subsequently a lepton asymmetry is generated via the non-ze...

Flavour symmetric connections with CLFV (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zhou, Y.-L., Lodovico, F. D., Pascoli, S., & Ballett, P. (2017, December). Flavour symmetric connections with CLFV. Presented at Prospects in Neutrino Physics (NuPhys2016), London

Flavons are crucial for understanding lepton mixing in models with non-Abelian discrete symmetries. They also result in charged lepton flavour violation (CLFV) via the couplings with leptons. I emphasise that the flavon-triggered CLFV succeeds strong... Read More about Flavour symmetric connections with CLFV.
