Dark matter and leptogenesis in gauged B-L symmetric models embedding $\nu$ MSM

Abstract

We study the phenomenon of baryogenesis via leptogenesis in the gauged $B-L$ symmetric models by embedding the currently proposed model $\nu MSM$. It is shown that the lightest right handed neutrino of mass $100GeV$ satisfy the leptogenesis constraint and at the same time representing a candidate for the cold dark matter. We discuss our results in parallel to the predictions of $\nu MSM$.
