Abstract: | The simplest minimal left-right symmetric extension of the Standard Model is studied in the high energy limit. Some consequences of the Grand Unification hypothesis are explored assuming that the parity-breaking scale is the only relevant energy between the electroweak scale and the unification point. While the model is shown to be compatible with the observed neutrino phenomenology, the parity-breaking scale and the heavy boson masses are predicted to be above 107 TeV, which is beyond the reach of present-day experiments. Below that scale, only an almost sterile right-handed neutrino with a mass M(ν R ) of ≈100 TeV is allowed. |
