Description

In this talk, we investigate the interplay between the observation of lepton number violating processes and the generation of the baryon asymmetry of the Universe via low-scale leptogenesis. We focus on the impact of non-standard interactions, beyond the usual Majorana mass term, on the observation of neutrinoless double beta decay and the resulting parameter space for successful leptogenesis. Parameterizing these effects in a model independent way, we showcase how additional operators can influence the final baryon asymmetry.
