We present a novel way of testing the seesaw origin of neutrino mass in the context of the minimal left-right symmetric model. It is based on the connection between the leptonic interactions of the doubly charged scalars, whose presence is at the core of the seesaw mechanism, and the neutrino Dirac Yukawa couplings which govern, among other processes, the right-handed neutrino decays into left-handed charged leptons. We prove that any physical quantity depending on these couplings is a function of the Hermitian part only, which can significantly simplify their future experimental determination.
我们提出了一种在最小左右对称模型的背景下测试中微子质量跷跷板起源的新方法。它基于双电荷标量的轻子相互作用与中微子狄拉克 Yukawa 耦合之间的联系,双电荷标量的存在是跷跷板机制的核心,而中微子狄拉克 Yukawa 耦合在其他过程中,控制着右手型中微子衰变为左手型带电轻子。我们证明,任何依赖于这些耦合的物理量仅是厄米部分的函数,这可以显著简化它们未来的实验测定。
