Description

In this talk I discuss the possibility of producing the observed baryon asymmetry of the Universe via thermal leptogenesis, where CP violation comes exclusively from the low-energy phases of the neutrino mixing matrix. We demonstrate the viability of thermal leptogenesis across seven orders of magnitude 10^6<T (GeV)< 10^13.

We clarify that at very high scales T > 10^12 GeV is sensitive to the low-energy phases, in contradiction with what is usually claimed in the literature.
