Abstract

It is pointed out (not for the first time) that the minimal Standard Model, without additional gauge-singlet right-handed neutrinos or isotriplet Higgs fields, allows for nonvanishing neutrino masses and mixing. The required interaction term is non-renormalizable and violates B-L conservation. The ultimate explanation of this interaction term may or may not rely on grand unification.
