Lepton Flavour Mixing Matrix and CP Violation from Neutrino Oscillation Experiments
نویسنده
چکیده
The measurement of the charged-current B solar neutrino reaction on deuterium at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory confirms the neutrino oscillation hypothesis for the solar neutrino problem, and the result favours the solution with large neutrino mixing angles. We demonstrate that the current neutrino oscillation data (including atmospheric and reactor neutrinos) are sufficient to construct the lepton flavour mixing matrix with a reasonable accuracy. We also infer the maximum size of CP violation effects consistent with the current neutrino oscillation experiments.

Long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments and CP violation in the lepton sector
We discuss possibilities to investigate the effects of CP (and T) violation in the lepton sector in neutrino oscillation experiments. We consider the effects of CP violation in the framework of two schemes of mixing of four massive neutrinos that can accommodate the results of all neutrino oscillation experiments. Using the constraints on the mixing parameters that follow from the results of sh...
متن کاملNew Formulation of Matter Effects on Neutrino Mixing and CP Violation
Within the framework of three lepton families we have derived an exact and compact formula to describe the matter effect on neutrino mixing and CP violation. This modeland parametrization-independent result can be particularly useful for recasting the fundamental lepton flavor mixing matrix from a variety of long-baseline neutrino experiments.

متن کاملCP Violation and Neutrino Oscillations
We review the basic mechanisms of neutrino mass generation and the corresponding structure of the lepton mixing matrix. We summarize the status of three-neutrino oscillation parameters as determined from current observations, using state-of-the-art solar and atmospheric neutrino fluxes, as well as latest experimental data as of September 2007. We also comment on recent attempts to account for t...
متن کاملNoncommutativity of Lepton Mass Matrices: Flavor Mixing and CP Violation
Abstract: I follow a lesson learnt from Heisenberg’s matrix Quantum Mechanics to study the property of lepton flavor mixing and CP violation. I show that the commutator of lepton mass matrices defined in vacuum keeps invariant under terrestrial matter effects within the four-neutrino mixing scheme. A set of model-independent sum rules for neutrino masses are obtained, and they can be generalize...
متن کاملNeutrino Mixing and CP Violation in Matter
Within the framework of three lepton families I present a transparent analytical relationship between the neutrino mixing and CP-violating parameters in vacuum and thos in matter. Such a modeland parametrization-independent result will be particularly useful to recast the fundamental lepton flavor mixing matrix from the future long-baseline neutrino experiments. Today strong evidence, that neut...
