Planck Scale Effects on the Majoron
read the original abstract
The hypothesis that non-perturbative gravitational effects lead to explicit breaking of global symmetries is considered in the context of Majoron models. We find that the nonvanishing Majoron mass generated by these effects can overclose the universe unless the massive Majoron is unstable. The cosmological mass density constraints can then be satisfied only if $V_{BL} < 10$ TeV, where $V_{BL}$ is the scale of $B-L$ symmetry breaking.

Physical implications of a double right-handed gauge symmetry
A double right-handed U(1) gauge extension generates the Standard Model fermion mass hierarchy at tree and loop levels and stabilizes a viable scalar singlet dark matter particle consistent with relic density and dire...

Probing Majoron Dark Matter with Gravitational Wave Detectors
Majoron dark matter with photon coupling fixed by electroweak and neutrino mass scales induces birefringence signals detectable by Advanced LIGO, KAGRA, and future ground-based laser interferometers.
