New Baryogenesis Mechanism Proposed Using CKM Matrix

A new preprint proposes a baryogenesis mechanism, challenging the common claim that Standard Model CP violation is insufficient. The scenario utilizes minimal flavor violation, where CP-violating effects originate from the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. This model, involving a leptoquark field, could generate the universe's observed baryon asymmetry without requiring time-varying parameters, offering a potential explanation for the matter-antimatter imbalance.
