Dias, A. G.Pires, CADda Silva, PSR2014-05-202014-05-202003-12-01Physical Review D. College Pk: American Physical Soc, v. 68, n. 11, 9 p., 2003.0556-2821http://hdl.handle.net/11449/23139We show that Peccei-Quinn and lepton number symmetries can be a natural outcome in a 3-3-1 model with right-handed neutrinos after imposing a Z(11)circle timesZ(2) symmetry. This symmetry is suitably accommodated in this model when we augment its spectrum by including merely one singlet scalar field. We work out the breaking of the Peccei-Quinn symmetry, yielding the axion, and study the phenomenological consequences. The main result of this work is that the solution to the strong CP problem can be implemented in a natural way, implying an invisible axion phenomenologically unconstrained, free of domain wall formation, and constituting a good candidate for the cold dark matter.9engDiscrete symmetries, invisible axion, and lepton number symmetry in an economic 3-3-1 modelArtigo10.1103/PhysRevD.68.115009WOS:000187885400049Acesso abertoWOS000187885400049.pdf
