Inverse seesaw mechanism in low-scale minimal trinification — •Christophe Cauet1, Heinrich Päs1, and Sören Wiesenfeldt21Institut für Physik, TU Dortmund, 44221 Dortmund, Germany — 2Helmholtz Gemeinschaft, Anna-Louisa-Karsch-Straße 2, 10178 Berlin, Germany

We present a variation of the minimal [SU(3)]3×Z3 trinification model with a low-scale mechanism for neutrino mass generation.

This is useful in scenarios where loop induced masses are supressed above some cut-off scale or high scales are absent in the theory in the first place, such as supersymmetry, extra dimensions, models implementing a large number of standard model copies or being motivated by AdS/CFT. For this purpose an inverse seesaw mechanism is specified, allowing the generation of light neutrino masses via a radiative seesaw with O(105−106 GeV) loop contributions. It is remarkable that the parameter regions remaining allowed after requiring small neutrino mass generation in the inverse seesaw mechanism, also prevent fast proton decays.
