Neutrino properties from Yukawa structure
نویسنده
چکیده
We discuss the implications for lepton mixing and CP violation of structure in the lepton mass matrices, for the case that neutrino masses are generated by the see-saw mechanism with an hierarchical structure for the Majorana masses. For a particularly interesting case with enhanced symmetry in which the lepton Dirac mass matrices are related to those in the quark sector, the CHOOZ angle is near the present limit and the CP violating phase relevant to thermal leptogenesis and to ν0ββ decay is near maximal.

Yukawa Matrix for the Neutrino and Lepton Flavour Violation *
We estimate the magnitude of Lepton Flavour Violation (LFV) from the phase of the neutrino Yukawa matrix. In the minimal supersymmetric standard model with right-handed neutrinos, the LFV processes li → ljγ can appear through the slepton mixing, which comes from the renormalization group effect on the right-handed neutrino Yukawa interaction between the Grand Unified Theory scale and the heavy ...
متن کاملAn apprach to generate large and small lep- tonic mixing angles
We take up the point of view that Yukawa couplings can be either 0 or 1, and the mass patterns of fermions are generated purely from the structure of the Yukawa matrices. We utilize such neutrino as well as charged leptonic textures which lead to (maximal) mixing angles of π/4 in each sector for relevant transitions. The combined leptonic CKM mixing angles are π/4 ± π/4 which lead to very small...
متن کاملUniversality of Yukawa Couplings Confronts Recent Neutrino Data
We propose a flavour structure for the leptonic sector of the Standard Model, based on the idea of universality of Yukawa couplings, which accommodates all the experimental data on neutrino masses and mixing, at the same time predicting specific correlations between low energy measurable quantities, such as the ratio of neutrino squared mass differences, |U13|, the leptonic Dirac phase, and the...
متن کاملNeutrino mixing in Seesaw model
We study the neutrino mixing matrix (MNS matrix) in seesaw model. Assuming large mass hierarchy for heavy right-handed Majorana mass, we show that MNS matrix is determined by a unitary matrix which transforms neutrino yukawa term into a triangular form. Large mixing may occur even if yukawa matrix for charged lepton and that for neutrino is simultaneously diagonalized by biunitary transformatio...
متن کاملA Constraint on Yukawa-Coupling Unification from Lepton-Flavor Violating Processes
We present a new constraint on a lepton mixing matrix V from lepton-flavor violating (LFV) processes in supersymmetric standard models with massive neutrinos. Here, we assume Yukawa-coupling unification fν3 ≃ ftop, in which τ -neutrino Yukawa coupling fν3 is unified into top-quark Yukawa coupling ftop at the unification scale M∗ ≃ 3 × 1016 GeV. We show that the present experimental bound on μ →...
