| Abstract: | There are two open questions in physics which seem unrelated. The first is why is there only matter around us? The second is how neutrinos acquire their tiny masses? It turns out that these two open questions may be related. That is, the same mechanism that gives neutrino masses can also generate a universe without anti-matter. In this talk I will explain the connection between these two issues and describe the on-going theoretical and experimental efforts in understanding them. |
