Tri-Bimaximal Mixing and the Neutrino Oscillation Data

چکیده

Following recent results from the SNO solar neutrino experiment and the K2K long-baseline neutrino experiment, the combined existing data on neutrino oscillations now point strongly to a specific form for the lepton mixing matrix, with effective bimaximal mixing of νμ and ντ at the atmospheric scale and effective trimaximal mixing for νe with νμ and ντ at the solar scale (hence ‘tri-bimaximal’ mixing). We give simple mass-matrices leading to tri-bimaximal mixing, and discuss its relation to the Fritzsch-Xing democratic ansatz.

Symmetries and Generalisations of Tri-Bimaximal Neutrino Mixing

Tri-bimaximal mixing is a specific lepton mixing ansatz, which has been shown to account very successfully for the established neutrino oscillation data. Working in a particular basis (the ‘circulant basis’), we identify three independent symmetries of tri-bimaximal mixing, which we exploit to set the tri-bimaximal hypothesis in context, alongside some simple, phenomenologically interesting CP ...

Tri-bimaximal and bimaximal neutrino mixing from discrete sym- metries

— The neutrino oscillation data are well explained by the tri-bimaximal pattern. Recently it has been shown that also the bimaximal pattern could be a very good starting point in order to describe the lepton mixing. In this paper I review both the flavour structures and then I present an explicit example. 1. – The lepton mixing matrix The solar and the atmospheric neutrino anomalies are well ex...

Tri - bimaximal Neutrino Mixing and θ 13

We propose an extension of tri-bimaximal mixing to include a non-zero reactor angle θ13 while maintaining the tri-bimaximal predictions for the atmospheric angle θ23 = 45 o and solar angle θ12 = 35 . We show how such tri-bimaximalreactor mixing can arise at leading order from realistic GUT models with nonAbelian discrete family symmetry spontaneously broken by flavons with vacuum alignment, bas...

Parametrizing the lepton mixing matrix in terms of deviations from tri-bimaximal mixing

We propose a parametrization of the lepton mixing matrix in terms of an expansion in powers of the deviations of the reactor, solar and atmospheric mixing angles from their tri-bimaximal values. We show that unitarity triangles and neutrino oscillation formulae have a very compact form when expressed in this parametrization, resulting in considerable simplifications when dealing with neutrino p...

We propose an extension of tri-bimaximal mixing to include a non-zero reactor angle θ13 while maintaining the tri-bimaximal predictions for the atmospheric angle θ23 = 45 o and solar angle θ12 = 35 . We show how such tri-bimaximalreactor mixing can arise at leading order from the (type I) see-saw mechanism with partially constrained sequential dominance. Partially constrained sequential dominan...
