We study CP asymmetries in lepton-number violating two-body scattering processes and show how they are related to CP asymmetries in the decays of intermediate massive Majorana neutrinos. Self-energy corrections, which do not contribute to CP asymmetries in two-body processes, induce CP violating couplings of the intermediate Majorana neutrinos to lepton-Higgs states. We briefly comment on the implications of these results for applications at finite temperature.

  1. The Majoron Cosmological Window: Dark Matter and Thermal Leptogenesis

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    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.
