Abstract

Bimaximal (BM) and tri-bimaximal (TB) mixings of neutrinos are two special cases of lepton mixing matrix, which predict the reactor angle θ13=0θ_{13}=0 and the atmospheric angle tan⁡2θ23=1\tan^2θ_{23}=1. Recent precision measurements and global analysis of oscillation parameters, have confirmed a non-vanishing value of θ13θ_{13} as well as deviations of θ12θ_{12} and θ23θ_{23} from their maximal values predicted by BM or TB mixing. In this work we mainly concentrate on θ13θ_{13} and θ23θ_{23} to assign sin⁡θ13≠0\sinθ_{13}\neq 0 and tan⁡2θ23<1\tan^2θ_{23}<1 with the help of charged lepton corrections defined by UPMNS=Ul†UνU_{PMNS}=U^{\dagger}_lU_ν. We first consider UνU_ν to be given separately by BM and TB mixing matrices and then find the possible forms of $U_l}$ such that the elements of PMNS matrix, finally yield sin⁡θ13≠0\sinθ_{13}\neq 0 and tan⁡2θ23<1\tan^2θ_{23}<1. To compute the values of mixing angles we assume the charged lepton correction to be of CKM-like. All the mixing matrices considered here satisfy the unitarity condition to leading order of expansion parameters. We also analyze both the mixing schemes in presence of Dirac CP phase and find expressions for the rephasing invariant quantity JCPJ_{CP} which have been discussed in recent literature.
