Two different models of neutrino masses are examined, based on an Abelian U(1) or a non-Abelian U(2) family symmetry. We show that a consistent picture of baryogenesis can emerge in both cases, although with significant differences.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "2003-10-22T13:04:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "13.35.Hb", "14.60.Pq", "11.30.Fs", "98.80.Cq" ], "keywords": [ "baryogenesis", "leptogenesis", "general evolution equations", "sufficiently accurate analytic solution", "prototype evolution equation" ], "tags": [ "journal article", "famous paper" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier", "journal": "Nucl.
