Summary

  • Presented phenomenology of a heavy triplet extension of the SM

triplet at 108 GeV scale prevents vacuum instability due to Higgs quartic coupling running negative with a Higgs at 125 GeV; allowing non minimal couplings to gravity, the triplet mixed with the Higgs behaves as inflaton; the low energy effective theory generates neutrino masses via type-II seesaw; fermionic asymmetric DM candidate is allowed, with inelastic scattering of nucleus as direct detection signature;

  • ut of equilibrium decay of the triplet generates both the baryon and DM

asymmetries via leptogenesis route.

  • Future prospects

the triplet is heavy, therefore the quartic couplings are not measurable at LHC; to distinguish between the 3 cases of inflation a proper numerical treatment is due, including the multi field dynamics; the scale of the triplet can be lowered at TeV scale in order to lead to visible signatures at LHC, i.e. via dilepton signals. careful study of oscillations - gauge interactions interplay for arising the asymmetry Thanks for your attention!
