Lepton masses and mixing angles from heterotic orbifold models

preprint2005arXivOpen access

Abstract

We systematically study the possibility for realizing realistic values of lepton mass ratios and mixing angles by using only renormalizable Yukawa couplings derived from heterotic Z6Z_6-I orbifold. We assume one pair of up and down sector Higgs fields. We consider both the Dirac neutrino mass scenario and the seesaw scenario with degenerate right-handed majorana neutrino masses. It is found that realistic values of the charged lepton mass ratios, me/mτm_e/m_τ and mμ/mτm_μ/m_τ, the neutrino mass squared difference ratio, Δm312/Δm212Δm^2_{31}/Δm^2_{21}, and the lepton mixing angles can be obtained in certain cases.
