| Popis: | We develop an $A_4 \times Z_4 \times Z_2$ symmetry extension of Standard Model under the minimal extended seesaw (MES) mechanism which successfully predicts neutrino masses and mixings patterns. This model breaks $\mu-\tau$ symmetry of neutrino mass matrix and explains leptonic mixing with non-zero $\theta_{13}$. We study the phenomenological results of the keV-scale sterile neutrino as a dark matter candidate along with other phenomenologies such as neutrino oscillation observables, neutrinoless double beta decay, baryogenesis via leptogenesis, etc. Dirac CP-violating phase $\delta_{CP}$ and two Majorana phases $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are also calculated from the leptonic mixing matrix. Best-fit values of the model parameters and neutrino observables are calculated from $\chi^2$ analysis. The model predicts best-fit values of neutrino mixing angles to be $\sin^2\theta_{23}=0.555,\ \sin^2\theta_{12}=0.301$ and $\sin^2\theta_{13}=0.022$ for normal hierarchy. Significant results consistent with experimental data are also observed for effective neutrino mass $m_{\beta\beta} \sim (0.97 - 5.02)$ meV, effective electron mass $m_{\beta} \sim (0.084-0.41)$eV and sum of active neutrino masses $\sum m_{i} < 0.12$ eV. The model does not favour Inverted hierarchy at the 3$\sigma$ level with the given parameter space. Comment: 27 pages, 10 Figures |
