Leptonic Unitarity Triangle and CP-violation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The area of the unitarity triangle is a measure of CP-violation. We introduce the leptonic unitarity triangles and study their properties. We consider the possibility of reconstructing the unitarity triangle in future oscillation and non-oscillation experiments. A set of measurements is suggested which will, in principle, allow us to measure all sides of the triangle, and consequently to establish CP-violation. For different values of CP-violating phase, δD, the required accuracy of measurements is estimated. The key elements of the method include determination of |Ue3| and studies of the νμ − νμ survival probability in oscillations driven by the solar mass splitting ∆msun. We suggest additional astrophysical measurements which may help to reconstruct the triangle. The method of the unitarity triangle is complementary to the direct measurements of CP-asymmetry. It requires mainly studies of the survival probabilities and processes where oscillations are averaged or the coherence of the state is lost.

Following analogy of the ‘db’ triangle in the quark mixing case, we have constructed the ‘ν2.ν3’ leptonic unitarity triangle using the MNS matrix formulated in the tribimaximal scenario by Bjorken et al. . In particular, for the Ue3 range 0.05 − 0.15, we find Dirac-like CP violating phase δ to be around 40, indicating a 2.5σ CP violation effect in the leptonic sector. In the last few years, apa...

Following analogy of the ‘db’ triangle in the quark mixing case, we have explored the construction of the ‘ν2.ν3’ leptonic unitarity triangle using the MNS matrix obtained by Bjorken et al. through generalization of the tribimaximal scenario. In particular, for the Ue3 range 0.05− 0.15, the existence of leptonic unitarity triangle indicates a fairly good possibility of having non zero CP violat...

We study the implication of the time-dependent CP asymmetry in B → π + π − decays on the extraction of weak phases taking into account the precise measurement of sin 2β, obtained from the " gold-plated " mode B → J/ψKS. Predictions and uncertainties for the hadronic parameters are investigated in QCD factorization. Furthermore, independent theoretical and experimental tests of the factorization...

We present a geometric description of lepton flavor mixing and CP violation in matter by using the language of leptonic unitarity triangles. The exact analytical relations for both sides and inner angles are established between every unitarity triangle in vacuum and its effective counterpart in matter. The typical shape evolution of six triangles with the terrestrial matter density is illustrat...
