Description
The scenario of baryogenesis through leptogenesis will be reviewed.
This is an appealing scenario that may relate the observed baryon
asymmetry in the Universe to the low-energy neutrino data. Particular
emphasis will be put on recent developments on the field, such as the
flavourdynamics of leptogenesis and resonant leptogenesis
near the electroweak phase transition. I will illustrate how these
recent developments enable the modelling of phenomenologically
predictive scenarios that can directly be tested at the LHC and
indirectly in low-energy experiments of lepton-number and
lepton-flavour violation.
