Mecanismos Seesaw de geração de massas para neutrinos

Abstract in Portuguese
Neste trabalho estudamos os mecanismos de geração de massa para os neutrinos. Inicialmente discorremos sobre o setor eletrofraco do Modelo Padrão dando ênfase para sua construção e os mecanismo de geração de massa das partículas, onde salientamos os limites deste modelo e sua percepção da natureza do neutrino. Utilizando campos do Modelo Padrão, vimos que é possível construir um operador de dimensão 5 que gera termos de massa de Majorana para partículas. Estudamos três realizações renormalizáveis que são pequenas extensões do Modelo Padrão e que a baixas energias exibiam o mesmo padrão que este operador de dimensão 5 que, através de um mecanismo de seesaw, gera massas para partículas neutras leves que são candidatas a neutrino de Majorana.

Abstract in English
In this work we studied the mechanism of mass generation for neutrinos. Initially we studied the electroweak sector of the Standard Model giving emphasis to its construction and the mass generation mechanism of particles, where we show the limits of this model and its perception of the nature of neutrinos. Using _elds of the Standard Model, we saw that it is possible to construct a dimension 5 operator that generates Majorana mass terms for the particles. We studied three renormalizable realizations which are small extensions of the Standard Model and that, at low energies, exhibit the same pattern as this dimension 5 operator that, through a Seesaw mechanism, generates mass for the light neutral particles that are the candidates to Majorana's neutrinos.
