Description

The recent determination of the primordial abundance of He4 suggests that our universe has a large lepton asymmetry. We consider the Q-ball scenario that produces the large lepton asymmetry without generating a large baryon asymmetry. We also discuss the enhancement of gravitational waves and resonant production of sterile neutrinos in the scenario.
