Description
In this talk we introduce the neutrino mass problem of the Standard Model of particle physics. Then, we analyze how to generate these masses by introducing right-handed Majorana singlets in the type 1 Seesaw mechanism framework. Afterwards, we explain the origin of these masses through the spontaneous symmetry breaking of a global U(1) symmetry, which introduces a new scalar singlet with a massive Goldstone mode, referred to as the Majoron. We conclude the talk by showing some preliminary results regarding the production of both Majorons and Heavy neutrinos at different experiments.
