The see-saw mechanism to generate small neutrino masses is reviewed. After summarizing our current knowledge about the low energy neutrino mass matrix we consider reconstructing the see-saw mechanism. Low energy neutrino physics is not sufficient to reconstruct see-saw, a feature which we refer to as ``see-saw degeneracy. Indirect tests of see-saw are leptogenesis and lepton flavor violation in supersymmetric scenarios, which together with neutrino mass and mixing define the framework of see-saw phenomenology. Several examples are given, both phenomenological and GUT-related. Variants of the see-saw mechanism like the type II or triplet see-saw are also discussed. In particular, we compare many general aspects regarding the dependence of LFV on low energy neutrino parameters in the extreme cases of a dominating conventional see-saw term or a dominating triplet term. For instance, the absence of mu -> e gamma or tau -> e gamma in the pure triplet case means that CP is conserved in neutrino oscillations. Scanning models, we also find that among the decays mu -> e gamma, tau -> e gamma and tau -> mu gamma the latter one has the largest branching ratio in (i) SO(10) type I see-saw models and in (ii) scenarios in which the triplet term dominates in the neutrino mass matrix.

We investigate the phenomenological impact of different sources of lepton flavour violation arising from realistic models based on supergravity mediated supersymmetry breaking with Yukawa operators. We discuss four distinct sources of lepton flavour
violation in such models: minimum flavour violation, arising from neutrino masses and the see-saw mechanism with RG running; supergravity flavour violation due to the non-universal structure of the supergravity model; flavour violation due to Froggatt-Nielsen (FN) fields appearing in Yukawa operators developing supersymmetry breaking F-terms and contributing in a non-universal way to soft trilinear terms; and finally heavy Higgs flavour violation arising from the heavy Higgs fields used to break the unified gauge symmetry which also appear in Yukawa operators and behave analagously to the FN fields. In order to quantify the relative effects, we study a particular type I string inspired model based on a supersymmetric Pati-Salam model arising from intersecting D-branes, supplemented by a U(1) family symmetry
The LFV charged lepton decays mu to e + gamma, tau to e + gamma and tau to mu + gamma and thermal leptogenesis are analysed in the MSSM with see-saw mechanism of neutrino mass generation and soft SUSY breaking with universal boundary conditions. The
case of hierarchical heavy Majorana neutrino mass spectrum, M_1 << M_2 << M_3, is investigated. Leptogenesis requires M_1 > 10^9 GeV. Considering the natural range of values of the heaviest right-handed Majorana neutrino mass, M_3 > 5*10^{13} GeV, and assuming that the soft SUSY breaking universal gaugino and/or scalar masses have values in the range of few 100 GeV, we derive the combined constraints, which the existing stringent upper limit on the mu to e + gamma decay rate and the requirement of successful thermal leptogenesis impose on the neutrino Yukawa couplings, heavy Majorana neutrino masses and SUSY parameters. Results for the three possible types of light neutrino mass spectrum -- normal and inverted hierarchical and quasi-degenerate -- are obtained.
The See-Saw mechanism provides a nice way to explain why neutrino masses are so much lighter than their charged lepton partners. It also provides a nice way to explain baryon asymmetry in our universe via the leptogenesis mechanism. In this talk we r
eview leptogenesis and LHC physics in a See-Saw model proposed in 1989, now termed the Type III See-Saw model. In this model, $SU(2)_L$ triplet leptons are introduced with the neutral particles of the triplets playing the role of See-Saw. The triplet leptons have charged partners with standard model gauge interactions resulting in many new features. The gauge interactions of these particles make it easier for leptognesis with low masses, as low as a TeV is possible. The gauge interactions also make the production and detection of triplet leptons at LHC possible. The See-Saw mechanism and leptogenesis due to Type III See-Saw may be tested at LHC.
We have studied the scotogenic model proposed by Ernest Ma, which is an extension of the Standard Model by three singlet right-handed neutrinos and a scalar doublet. This model proposes that the light neutrinos acquire a non-zero mass at 1-loop level
. In this work, the realisation of the scotogenic model is done by using discrete symmetries $A_{4}times Z_{4}$ in which the non-zero $theta_{13}$ is produced by assuming a non-degeneracy in the loop factor. Considering different lepton flavor violating(LFV) processes such as $l_{alpha}longrightarrow l_{beta}gamma$ and $l_{alpha}longrightarrow 3l_{beta}$, their impact on neutrino phenomenology is studied. We have also analysed $0 ubetabeta$ and baryon asymmetry of the Universe (BAU) in this work.
In this present work, we uphold the standard model (SM) augmented with two right-handed (RH) neutrinos along with two singlet neutral fermions to generate active neutrino masses via (2,2) inverse see-saw mechanism. All entries of the neutrino mass ma
trix are taken to be complex to make this study a general one. We also investigate if the parameter points compatible with the neutrino oscillation data simultaneously satisfy the experimental bounds coming from the lepton flavour violating (LFV) decays : $mu to e gamma,~ tau to e gamma, ~ tau to mu gamma$. This study also explores the prospect of producing the baryon asymmetry of the universe through resonant leptogenesis. Here the resonant leptogenesis is induced by the lightest pair of degenerate mass eigenstates. Upon solving the coupled Boltzmann equations, one can divide the multi-dimensional model parameter space into three parts, where the parameter points are compatible with the neutrino oscillation data, constraints coming from the LFV decays and last but not the least, the observed baryon asymmetry of the universe.
