Neutrino mass operators Neutrino masses generated by d>4 operators Weinberg operator, d=5: Majorana masses, 129 LNV operators, d=5,7,9,11. (Babu, Leung, 2001, de Gouvea, Jenkins, 2008) 9 Stella Riad, RG running in radiative models, MIAPP, 26/

Procedure: -Make choice of model, identify representations -Determine contribution from each representation analytically or using Running in radiative models 10 Idea: Study RG running in radiative neutrino mass models - SM gauge group + additional representation Stella Riad, RG running in radiative models, MIAPP, 26/ Solve RGEs -Does it unify? If so, at a reasonable scale? (10^16) Model can be categorized: 1.Those unifying 2.Those which doesn’t unify but also doesn’t diverge 3.Those which fail miserably

Minimal d=7 models 11 Cai, Clarke, Schmidt, Volkas, models with d = 7 Additional requirements: SM gauge symmetry only, additional particles scalars, vectorlike fermions, or Majorana fermions One- or two-loop radiative models Stella Riad, RG running in radiative models, MIAPP, 26/ Weinberg-like

Dark matter candidates 14 Minimal dark matter (Cirelli, Fornengo, Strumia, Nucl.Phys. B753, 2006) Color neutral. As is required for any dark matter candidate. DM are n-tuplets of SU(2) The hypercharge must be such that one component is electrically neutral. Lightest component stable and neutral Only renormalizable interactions are of gauge type Stella Riad, RG running in radiative models, MIAPP, 26/

RG running (and GUTs) can be discussed either in a top- down and bottom-up framework. Top-down: start from the unified theory and run down to effective theory. Predicts values at EW scale. Bottom-up: start from effective theory and run up. Renormalization Group Running 28 Stella Riad, RG running in radiative models, MIAPP, 26/
