Stable bimaximal neutrino mixing pattern
نویسنده
چکیده
The data from the various neutrino experiments indicate a bimaximal mixing among three neutrino generations. The atmospheric neutrino puzzle requires a near maximal mixing between a pair of neutrinos [1]. The solar neutrino puzzle has various possible solutions but the large angle MSW solution is favoured [2]. As the mass squared difference required for these two solutions differ by about few orders of magnitude, we must have two different pairs with large mixing. The CHOOZ experiment constrain one of the mixing angles to be small [3]. So out of three mixing angles two are large and one is small indicating a bimaximal structure. The large mixing in neutrino is in sharp contrast to the very small mixing in the quark sector. Flavor symmetries may generate bimaximal mixing structure in neutrino masses [4]. But such structure generated at the high scale may not be stable under renormalisation group evolution to low scale if neutrino masses are quasi degenerate [5,6]. Alternatively renormalisation Group evolution from high scale to the present scale have been proposed as a mechanism to generate large mixing from a small mixing [7]. But in these mechanism enhancement of the mixing angle is scale dependent and hence may be unstable and fine tuned. [8]. We do a three generation analysis and find that large mixing can be a stable fixed point of renormalisation group evolution in certain region of experimentally allowed parameter space. We consider a quasi degenerate mass structure with one of the state in an opposite CP phase to the other two.

Bimaximal Neutrino Mixing and Neutrino Mass Matrix
We show that the bimaximal neutrino mixing pattern suggested by the solar and atmospheric neutrino data can be derived from the maximal, symmetric , four neutrino mixing in the limit that one of the neutrinos is made heavy. Imposing the constraints of no neutrinoless double beta decay and a 20% hot dark matter component of the universe leads to a three neutrino mass matrix recently suggested by...
متن کاملTri-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...
متن کاملFermion masses and mixings in a S4 based model
It has been recently claimed that the symmetry group S4 yields to the Tri-bimaximal neutrino mixing in a “natural” way from the group theory point of view. Approving of this feature as an indication, we build a supersymmetric model of lepton and quark masses based on this family symmetry group. In the lepton sector, a correct mass hierarchy among the charged leptons is achieved together to a ne...
متن کاملNearly Tri-bimaximal Neutrino Mixing and CP Violation from μ-τ Symmetry Breaking
Assuming the Majorana nature of massive neutrinos, we generalize the Friedberg-Lee neutrino mass model to include CP violation in the neutrino mass matrix Mν . We show that a favorable neutrino mixing pattern (with θ12 ≈ 35.3, θ23 = 45, θ13 6= 0 and δ = 90) can naturally be derived from Mν , if it has an approximate or softly-broken μ-τ symmetry. We point out a different way to obtain the nearl...
متن کاملTri-Bimaximal Mixing and the Neutrino Oscillation Data
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’ ...
