Description

In this talk, we look at some cosmological constraints on majoron dark matter in the singlet Majoron model. We consider two scenarios: pre-inflationary and post inflationary spontaneous lepton number symmetry breaking, while simultaneously demanding thermal leptogenesis to happen, and neutrino masses being generated by the type I seesaw mechanism. We derive the constraints and future prospects to probe majoron dark matter over a broad mass range.
