Abstract:
We consider Dirac leptogenesis in supersymmetric theories where the supersymmetry breaking is transmitted to the observable sector by an anomalous U(1) symmetry. This kind of supersymmetry breaking is known to provide a solution to the problem and avoid large CP-violation effects. The asymmetries generated by the decays of heavy leptons do not suffer from wash-out due to the equilibration of left- and right-handed neutrinos thanks to the extreme smallness of the neutrino masses. The model ties up the smallness of the neutrino masses and the out-of-equilibrium nature of the heavy lepton decays with no tension with the overproduction of gravitinos.Received: 23 October 2003, Revised: 31 August 2004, Published online: 20 October 2004
