Abstract

The singlet-Majoron model, with $B - L$ broken spontaneously at the GeV scale, allows $Ω = 1$ in $ν_{μ}$ or $ν_{τ}$ with masses in the range of 1 keV to 35 MeV. Neutrino-Majoron scattering leads to an unusual processing of the density perturbation spectrum; the resulting large-scale structure will be very similar to warm or cold dark matter. The Higgs boson may decay predominantly into invisible channels giving signatures with a missing-mass peak.
