    A Understanding the Mass of the Higgs Triplet in Neutrino Mass Mechanism

    You are right. But my question can be reformulated. In some theories (see saw II or III), we assume the existence of a scalar SU(2)L triplet defined by Δ=(Δ++,Δ+,Δ°) (=Higgs triplet) or new fermionic SU(2) triplet Σ=(Σ+,Σ°,Σ-). In such models, we refer on the mass of the triplet mΔ or mΣ. My...

    Dirac and Majorana spinors for neutrinos

    Thank you, this text is very useful. But I am still not sure to understand the difference between the fields component and the particle. For example for the Dirac field where ##\Psi_{D}=\Psi_{L}+\Psi_{R}##, the four components of the field ##\Psi_{D}## are...

    Dirac and Majorana spinors for neutrinos

    Dirac description If I well understood a Dirac description for fermions is : ##\Psi_{D}=\Psi_{L}+\Psi_{R}## where ##\Psi_{L}## is the left-chiral spinor and ##\Psi_{R}## the right-chiral spinor. Each spinor, ##\Psi_{L} ## and ##\Psi_{R}## has 2 components cotrresponding to the particle and...

    Does Helicity or Chirality Govern the Weak Process in Neutrino Interactions?

    Thanks ! But in fact I am not sure it is right... Look double beta decay : right (chirality) antineutrino is first emitted, then its helicity is flipped (massive neutrino) : it becomes a left helicity antineutrino still with right chirality. And, if Majorana, this left helicity antineutrino...

    Does Helicity or Chirality Govern the Weak Process in Neutrino Interactions?

    A left handed neutrino (chirality) can be seen with a right helicity due to a lorentz boost. Can this neutrino interact ? Yes because it is still left-handed chirality ?
