Calculation of the Branching Ratio of the Process μeγ in a Model of Electroweak-Scale Right-Handed Neutrinos

Article Preview

Abstract:

Rich phenomenology is generally expected if the heavy neutrinos responsible via the seesaw mechanism for the small neutrino mass observed in neutrino oscillations are not much heavier than the electroweak scale. A model with this feature built in has been suggested recently by Hung. We analyze the lepton flavor structure in gauge interactions and calculate the branching ratios for the rare decays due to the gauge interactions in this model.
