Tests of leptogenesis at low-energy

The problem of testing leptogenesis from low energy experiments is discussed following three different perspectives. Firstly, we review the prospects that from low energy experiments we could reconstruct the neutrino Yukawa coupling matrix and hence constrain the leptogenesis mechanism. We emphasize the fact that the experimental determination of the phases and mixings in the light neutrino mass matrix is irrelevant for leptogenesis, unless additional information about the texture of the Yukawa coupling matrix is provided by other observables. Secondly, we show how the discovery of an extra gauge boson could bring us important indications for leptogenesis. Thirdly, we discuss the problems one encounters when attempting to build a leptogenesis mechanism at a directly testable scale, presenting an explicit model which avoids these problems.
