Baryon Asymmetry of the Universe: a Window to Physics beyond the Standard Model

Mikhail Shaposhnikov, EPFL

Abstract:
I will overview the problem of baryon asymmetry of the Universe and the theoretical framework within which baryogenesis, the dynamical generation of a matter-antimatter asymmetry, can occur. I will discuss different mechanisms for baryogenesis with special emphasis to those of them that can be experimentally tested.
