Baryogenesis from Hierarchical Dirac Neutrinos

We present here a novel and testable mechanism for leptogenesis, which is characterized by a purely thermal generation of lepton asymmetry via scalar decay. Guided by the thermal mass matrix diagonalization in the finite-temperature regime, we propose a scenario in which the baryon asymmetry is formulated in terms of the masses and mixing from hierarchical Dirac neutrinos, as well as a vacuum scale accountable for the sub-eV neutrino masses. This allows a natural and direct link between the high-scale \textit{CP} asymmetry and the low-energy Dirac \textit{CP}-violating phase without involved model structures, and thus circumvents the haunting problem encountered in general leptogenesis scenarios. The mechanism can also be applied as a prototype for solving the baryon asymmetry problem to a broad class of well-motivated model buildings.
