We studied the effects of the absolute neutrino mass scale in the scotogenic radiative seesaw model. From a scan over the parameter space of this model, a linear relation between the absolute neutrino mass and the dark sector-Higgs coupling $lambda_5= 3.1times10^{-9} m_{ u_e}/$eV has been established. With the projected sensitivity of the KATRIN experiment nearing cosmologically favored values, a neutrino mass measurement would fix the value of $lambda_5$. Subsequent correlations between the DM mass and the Yukawa coupling between DM and the SM leptons can probe the fermion DM parameter space, when lepton flavor violation constraints are also considered. The results are independent of the neutrino mass hierarchy and the CP phase.

The KArlsruhe TRItium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment is designed to measure tritium $beta$-decay spectrum with enough precision to be sensitive to neutrino mass down to 0.2eV at 90$%$ Confidence Level. After an initial first tritium run in the summer o f 2018, KATRIN is taking tritium data in 2019 that should lead to a first neutrino mass result. The $beta$ spectral shape of the tritium decay is also sensitive to four countershaded Lorentz Violating (LV), oscillation-free operators within the Standard-Model Extension that may be quite large. The status and outlook of KATRIN to produce physics results, including in the LV sector, are discussed.
KATRIN is a very large scale tritium-beta-decay experiment to determine the mass of the neutrino. It is presently under construction at the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, and makes use of the Tritium Laboratory built there for the ITER project. The com bination of a very large retarding-potential electrostatic-magnetic spectrometer and an intense gaseous molecular tritium source makes possible a sensitivity to neutrino mass of 0.2 eV, about an order of magnitude below present laboratory limits. The measurement is kinematic and independent of whether the neutrino is Dirac or Majorana. The status of the project is summarized briefly in this report.
In this work we have re-investigated two different kinds of texture zero ansatz of the low energy neutrino mass matrix in view of the Dark-Large-Mixing-Angle (DLMA) solution of the solar neutrino problem which can arise in the presence of non-standar d interactions. In particular we revisit the cases of (i) one zero mass matrices when the lowest neutrino mass is zero and (ii) one zero texture with a vanishing minor. In our study we find that for most of the cases, the texture zero conditions which are allowed for the LMA solution, are also allowed for the DLMA solution. However, we found two textures belonging to the case of one zero texture with a vanishing minor where LMA solution does not give a viable solution whereas DLMA solution does. We analyze all the possible texture zero cases belonging to these two kinds of texture zero structures in detail and present correlations between different parameters. We also present the predictions for the effective neutrino mass governing neutrino-less double beta decay for the allowed textures.
In 2006, a simple extension of the Standard Model was proposed in which neutrinos obtain radiative Majorana masses at one-loop level from their couplings with dark matter, hence the term scotogenic, from the Greek scotos meaning darkness. Here an ana logous mechanism for Dirac neutrino masses is discussed in a minimal model. In different ranges of the parameter space, various candidates for dark matter are possible. In particular, the lightest Dirac fermion which appears in the loop diagram generating neutrino mass can be a viable dark matter candidate. Such a possibility does not exist for the Majorana case. Realistic neutrino mixing in the context of $A_4$ is discussed. A possible supersymmetric extension is also briefly discussed.

A new and radical scenario of the simple 2006 model of radiative neutrino mass is proposed, where there is no seesaw mechanism, i.e. neutrino masses are not inversely proportional to some large mass scale, contrary to the prevalent theoretical thinki ng. The neutral singlet fermions in the loop have masses of order 10 keV, the lightest of which is absolutely stable and the others are very long-lived. All are components of warm dark matter, which is a possible new paradigm for explaining the structure of the Universe at all scales.
