Abstract

After recalling the general virtues of leptogenesis we compare two realizations, Affleck-Dine leptogenesis and thermal leptogenesis, which generically lead to different predictions for neutrino masses. Finally, we describe the progress towards a full quantum mechanical description of the basic non-equilibrium process of leptogenesis beyond the approximations involved in Boltzmann's equations.
