An introduction to leptogenesis and neutrino properties,  Pasquale Di Bari

    This is an introductory review of the main features of leptogenesis, one of the most attractive models of baryogenesis for the explanation of the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe. The calculation of the asymmetry in leptogenesis is intimately related to neutrino properties so that leptogenesis is also an important phenomenological tool to test the see-saw mechanism for the generation of neutrino masses and mixing and the underlying theory beyond the Standard Model.
