In this context, the neutrino masses are generated through the type I and type III seesaw mechanisms, and one predicts that the field responsible for type III seesaw must be light with a mass below 500 TeV. We discuss the testability of this theory at current and future proton decay experiments.", optnote="WOS:000442546400004", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=3701), last updated on Wed, 05 Sep 2018 11:18:01 +0000", issn="2470-0010", doi="10.1103/PhysRevD.98.035032", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1804.07831", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.98.035032", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1804.07831", language="English" }
