Neutrino mixing and CP violation from Dirac-Majorana mixing

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We consider a minimal condition that predicts the 1-3 lepton mixing angle θ13≃θC/2θ_{13} \simeq θ_{\rm C}/\sqrt{2} with θCθ_{\rm C} the Cabibbo angle, and give the improved prediction of θ13θ_{13}. In the case of normal mass ordering, the theoretical value of θ13θ_{13} is predicted as θ13=8.6∘θ_{13}=8.6^\circ, which is in good agreement with the current global best fit. In the case of inverted mass ordering, the theoretical value is predicted as θ13=9.7∘θ_{13}=9.7^\circ, which is far from the current global best fit. We also study the leptonic CP violation. We show that any values of the leptonic Dirac CP phase δCPδ_{\rm CP} can be obtained by fine tuning. Without fine tuning, ∣sin⁡δCP∣|\sinδ_{\rm CP}| should be very small, typically of O(λ2){\cal O}(λ^2) where λ≡sin⁡θCλ\equiv \sinθ_{\rm C}. Furthermore, a model-independent measure of CP violation is proposed, which is applicable to any flavor models.
