We give analytic approximations to the baryon asymmetry produced by thermal leptogenesis with hierarchical right-handed neutrinos. Our calculation includes flavour-dependent washout processes and CP violation in scattering, and neglects gauge interactions and finite temperature corrections. Our approximate formulae depend upon the three CP asymmetries in the individual lepton flavours as well as on three flavour-dependent efficiency factors. We show that the commonly used expressions for the lepton asymmetry, which depend on the total CP asymmetry and one single efficiency factor, may fail to reproduce the correct lepton asymmetry in a number of cases. We illustrate the importance of using the flavour-dependent formulae in the context of a two right-handed neutrino model.

  1. Axion-driven spontaneous leptogenesis, precisely

    hep-ph 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Standard-misalignment axions coupled to strong or weak sphalerons can produce the observed baryon asymmetry at GUT-scale decay constants, whereas the vanilla Majoron scenario is ruled out by late-time dilution.

  2. Cosmic Collider Gravitational Waves sourced by Right-handed Neutrino production from Bubbles: Testing Seesaw, Leptogenesis and Dark Matter

    astro-ph.CO 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Bubble collisions in a seesaw model produce right-handed neutrinos that source novel gravitational waves detectable by LISA, ET, and LVK while allowing the lightest RHN to explain dark matter or enable leptogenesis.

  3. Exact constraints on family-separated seesaw relations and their phenomenological consequences

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Under exact family-separated seesaw alignment, the neutrino Yukawa columns are exactly orthogonal and all standard nonresonant one-loop decay asymmetries vanish, invalidating the proposed CP-asymmetry correlation.

  4. Non-holomorphic $S^{\prime}_{4}$ modular symmetry for leptons and leptogenesis

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    36 viable non-holomorphic S'4 modular models for leptons are identified via numerical scans, with two yielding successful unflavored thermal leptogenesis from the real part of τ while fitting neutrino data.

    Dimension-7 lepton-number-violating operators can make B→Kνν and K→πνν observable only in flavor-hierarchical scenarios (first lepton generation decoupled) or with a cutoff near 100-200 GeV; otherwise baryon washout a...

    hep-ph 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    If one neutrino species in the cosmic neutrino background is still relativistic today, UHE neutrinos scattering off it can resonantly disappear over a broad energy range, and GRAND could detect that dip to probe neutr...

    hep-ph 2026-05 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In SMEFT, the (B-L)-violating decay n → K⁺ℓ⁻ appears at dimension seven while the conserving n → K⁻ℓ⁺ requires dimension ten and is accompanied by lower-dimensional (B+L)-violating modes, so n → Kℓ without modes like ...

    The minimal majoron framework permits simultaneous majoron dark matter and thermal leptogenesis in a constrained cosmological window set by freeze-in production, warm dark matter bounds, and indirect detection limits.

    In hierarchical seesaw leptogenesis, the required lightest heavy-neutrino mass sits between about 10^8 and 10^10 GeV for typical fine-tuning and can fall to 10^6 GeV with strong fine-tuning, as a function of the light...
