MSSM x U(1)B-L are MSSM singlets Fields: Q Qc L Lc QB-L : 1/6 -1/6 -1/2 1/2 1 -1 + SUSY partners The new sneutrino: (inside ) can be a dark matter candidate of this model W = WMSSM + lNcHuL + R. Allahverdi, B. Dutta, K. Richardson-Mcdaniel, Y. Santoso Phys.Rev.D79:075005,2009 Non-zero neutrino masses are well accommodated in U(1)B-L Only left-handed neutrinos have charges under SM Under MSSM x U(1)B-L : Lc contains ec and NcNc: Right Handed Neutrino We have a new gauge boson: +SUSY partner 2 2
MSSM x U(1)B-L and Unification The B-L symmetry is broken: between EW scale to GUT scale The gauge couplings unify => gB-L (TeV) ~ 0.4: Low scale breaking We use the spectrum (from the previous page) : The unification holds with QB-L for Higgs=3/2, -3/2 or (1, -1) R. Allahverdi, B. Dutta, K. Richardson-Mcdaniel, Y. Santoso Phys.Lett.B677:172,2009 MSSM x U(1)B-L can be unified in SO(10) GUT Dutta, Mimura, Mohapatra; Phys.Rev. D87 (2013) 075008 3 3
MSSM x U(1)B-L and Dark Matter Sneutrino annihilate into new Higgs/fermions S-channel Z’, Higgs’ T channel Z’-ino S-channel Z’, Higgs’ F, A: Heavy Higgs final states are also there, but are mostly kinematically suppressed The annihilation cross-sections involving Higgs are governed by the D terms interactions involving MZ’ 4 4
MSSM x U(1)B-L and ICECUBE Case1: Sneutrinosannihilate to produce mostly taus, b’s All these final states produce neutrinosIceCube From Sun • taus, b’s produce left handed neutrino in 3 body decay processes m neutrino flux from Sun mrates detection 5 5
MSSM x U(1)B-L and ICECUBE From Sun Case 2: Sneutrinosannihilate to produce mostlyRight-handed neutrinos which then decay into left handed neutrinos via Dirac coupling mSUGRA:Hyperbolic branch/Focus point. Best case for mSUGRA at the IceCube R. Allahverdi, S. Bornhauser, B. Dutta, K. Richardson-Mcdaniel 6 6

Majoranavs Dirac Can we see the difference between Majorana – Dirac type neutrino? Light Neutrino mass: 1) lnL <v> : Dirac type (l is very small) 2) : Majorana type (l is large, MR is 1 TeV or larger) LHC? Any signal ? Indirect Detection? Any Signal Also Neutrino mixing matrix introduces PMNS matrix flavor violation in the slepton sector: LHC signal? LFV In the context of mSUGRA: Allahverdi, Dutta, KamonKrislockPhys.Rev. D86 (2012) 015026
Majoranavs Dirac Dirac Case: Nc does not decay due to small l, DNeff > 0, current Planck: 0:48+0.48-0.45 Majorana case: Nc decays into n + Higgs Higgs decays into bs, t’s: Photon signal (Fermi) and neutrino signal (IceCube) Indirect Detection Allahverdi, Campbell, Dutta, Gao, In preparation
Conclusion • Neutrino mass differences and mixing angles are well measured • Models which explain neutrino masses require new symmetry • These models can have new DM candidate, e.g., spin 0 sneutrino • The origin of neutrino mass can be distinguished indirect detection • The Lepton flavor violation arising in this model can be • investigated at the LHC
