Radiatively induced neutrino masses and oscillations in anSU(3)L×U(1)Ngauge model

Abstract
We have constructed an SU(3)L×U(1)N gauge model utilizing a U(1)L symmetry, where L=LeLμLτ, which accommodates tiny neutrino masses generated by L-conserving one-loop and L-breaking two-loop radiative mechanisms. The generic smallness of two-loop radiative effects compared with one-loop radiative effects describes the observed hierarchy of Δmatm2 Δm2. A key ingredient for radiative mechanisms is a charged scalar (h+) that couples to charged lepton-neutrino pairs and h+ together with the standard Higgs scalar (φ) can be unified into a Higgs triplet as (φ0, φ, h+)T. This assignment in turn requires lepton triplets (ψLi) with heavy charged leptons (κL+i) as the third member: ψLi=(νLi,lLi,κL+i)T, where i (=1,2,3) denotes three families. It is found that our model is relevant to yield quasivacuum oscillations for solar neutrinos.
