Maximal CP Violation in Flavor Neutrino Masses

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

Since flavor neutrino masses Mμμ,ττ,μτM_{μμ,ττ,μτ} can be expressed in terms of Mee,eμ,eτM_{ee,eμ,eτ}, mutual dependence among Mμμ,ττ,μτM_{μμ,ττ,μτ} is derived by imposing some constraints on Mee,eμ,eτM_{ee,eμ,eτ}. For appropriately imposed constraints on Mee,eμ,eτM_{ee,eμ,eτ}, we show a texture of neutrino mass matrix giving rise to maximal CP violation. When the atmospheric neutrino mixing is also maximal, we discuss various specific textures of neutrino mass matrices including the texture with Mττ=Mμμ∗M_{ττ}=M^\ast_{μμ} derived as the simplest solution to the constraint of Mττ−MμμM_{ττ}-M_{μμ}=imaginary, which is required by the constraint of Meμcos⁡θ23−Meτsin⁡θ23M_{eμ}\cosθ_{23}-M_{eτ}\sinθ_{23}=real for cos⁡2θ23=0\cos 2θ_{23}=0. It is found that Majorana CP violation depends on the phase of MeeM_{ee}.
