Leptogenesis in Majoron Models without Domain Walls

Abstract

The emergence of domain walls is a well-known problem in Majoron models for neutrino mass generation. Here, we present extensions of the Majoron model by right-handed doublets and triplets that prevent domain walls from arising. These extensions are highly interesting in the context of Leptogenesis as they impact the conversion of a lepton asymmetry to a baryon asymmetry by Sphaleron processes.
