Weyl fermion creation by cosmological gravitational wave background at 1-loop by Azadeh Maleknejad, Joachim Kopp

“…Notably, if Weyl fermions eventually acquire mass, and assuming realistic — and potentially detectable — gravitational wave backgrounds, the mechanism can explain the abundance of dark matter in the Universe. More generally, gravitational-wave induced freeze-in is a new purely gravitational mechanism for generating other feebly interacting fermions, e.g. right-handed neutrinos. …”
