摘要
The cosmological baryon asymmetry can be explained as remnant of heavy Majorana neutrino decays in the early universe. We study this mechanism for two models of neutrino masses with a large nu(mu) - nu(tau) mixing angle which are based on the symmetries SU(5) x U(1)(F) and SU(3)(c) x SU(3)(L) x SU(3)(R) x U(1)(F), respectively. In both cases B - L is broken at the unification scale Lambda(GUT) The models make different predictions for the baryogenesis temperature and the gravitino abundance. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
