Minimal Modification

The tribimaximal mixing describes the observed solar and atmospheric neutrino mixings; however, it predicts vanishing reactor neutrino mixing angle, which is inconsistent with the observed data. We show a way of minimally modifying the tribimaximal mixing by including charged lepton contributions.

Reactor Mixing

The recent results from Daya Bay and RENO reactor neutrino experiments have firmly established that the smallest reactor mixing angle θ13 is nonvanishing at the 5 σ level, with a relatively large value, i.e. θ13 ≈ 9°. Using the fact that the neutrino mixing matrix can be represented as [Formula: see text], where Ul and Uν result from the diagonalization of the charged lepton and neutrino mass matrices and Pν is a diagonal matrix containing the Majorana phases and assuming the tri-bimaximal (TBM) form for Uν, we investigate the possibility of accounting for the large reactor mixing angle due to the corrections of the charged lepton mixing matrix. The form of Ul is assumed to be that of CKM mixing matrix of the quark sector. We find that with this modification it is possible to accommodate the large observed reactor mixing angle θ13. We also study the implications of such corrections on the other phenomenological observables.

Majorana Neutrino Mass

We have studied that the implication of a large value of the effective Majorana neutrino mass in case of neutrino mass matrices has either two equal elements and one zero element (popularly known as hybrid texture) or two equal cofactors and one zero minor (popularly known as inverse hybrid texture) in the flavor basis. In each of these cases, four out of sixty phenomenologically possible patterns predict near maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing angle in the limit of large effective Majorana neutrino mass. This feature remains irrespective of the experimental data on solar and reactor mixing angles. In addition, we have also performed the comparative study of all the viable cases of hybrid and inverse hybrid textures at 3σ CL.

In this document we will review the current status of reactor neutrino oscillation experiments and present their physics potentials for measuring the θ13 neutrino mixing angle. The neutrino mixing angle θ13 is currently a high-priority topic in the field of neutrino physics. There are currently three different reactor neutrino experiments, DOUBLE CHOOZ, DAYA BAY and RENO and a few accelerator neutrino experiments searching for neutrino oscillations induced by this angle. A description of the reactor experiments searching for a nonzero value of θ13 is given, along with a discussion of the sensitivities that these experiments can reach in the near future.

Neutrino Masses And Mixings

On the basis of a seesaw-type mass matrix model for quarks and leptons, [Formula: see text] where mL∝mR are universal for f=u, d, v and e (up-quark, downquark, neutrino and charged lepton sectors respectively), and MF has a form [(unit matrix)+(democratic-type matrix)], neutrino masses and mixings are investigated. We try to understand a large vµ−vτ mixing, i.e. sin2 2θ23~1, with mv1 ≪ mv2~mv3, which has been suggested by the atmospheric neutrino data.

The MINOS experiment uses the NuMI νμ beam to make precise measurements of neutrino flavor oscillations in the "atmospheric" neutrino sector. MINOS can also probe the yet-unknown neutrino mixing angle θ13 by searching for a νe appearance signal in the νμ beam. This paper reviews the techniques developed for the first νe appearance analysis in MINOS.

The Universe

We estimate the baryon–photon ratio in the Universe via the leptogenesis scenario in the framework of the minimal seesaw model with a minimally modified bipair neutrino mixing. We assume that one of the elements of the 3 × 2 Dirac mass matrix mD is exactly zero. It turns out that the lepton asymmetry as well as baryon number of the Universe definitely depends on the reactor neutrino mixing angle in the cases of (mD)11 = 0 and (mD)12 = 0. The allowed region of the Majorana CP phase is separated into three regions related to the assumption of either (mD)11 = 0, (mD)21, 31 = 0 or (mD)12 = 0.

In view of the new data from the Daya Bay and RENO collaborations, King has presented a very natural deformation of tri-bimaximal mixing. Here, we show that L/E flatness of the e-like event ratio in the atmospheric neutrino data, when coupled with King's observation that the smallest neutrino mixing angle, , seems to be related to the largest quark mixing angle (the Cabibbo angle ), leading to a CP violating tri-bimaximal-Cabibbo mixing. King's tri-bimaximal-Cabibbo mixing follows as a leading order approximation from our result.

Majorana Neutrino Mass

Exchange [Formula: see text] symmetry in the effective Majorana neutrino mass matrix does predict a maximal mixing for atmospheric neutrino oscillations asides to a null mixing that cannot be straightforwardly identified with reactor neutrino oscillation mixing, [Formula: see text], unless a specific ordering is assumed for the mass eigenstates. Otherwise, a nonzero value for [Formula: see text] is predicted already at the level of an exact symmetry. In this case, solar neutrino mixing and scale, as well as the correct atmospheric mixing arise from the breaking of the symmetry. I present a mass matrix proposal for normal hierarchy that realizes this scenario, where the smallness of [Formula: see text] is naturally given by the parameter [Formula: see text] and the solar mixing is linked to the smallness of [Formula: see text]. The proposed matrix remains stable under renormalization effects and it also allows to account for CP violation within the expected region without further constrains.

Antineutrino Flux

The Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment was designed to measure Θ13, the smallest mixing angle in the three-neutrino mixing framework, with unprecedented precision. The experiment consists of eight identically designed detectors placed underground at different baselines from three pairs of nuclear reactors in South China. Since Dec. 2011, the experiment has been running stably for more than 7 years, and has collected the largest reactor antineutrino sample to date. Daya Bay greatly improved the precision on Θ13 and made an independent measurement of the effective mass splitting in the electron antineutrino disappearance channel. Daya Bay also performed a number of other precise measurements such as a high-statistics determination of the absolute reactor antineutrino flux and the spectrum evolution, as well as a search for the sterile neutrino mixing, among others. The most recent results from Daya Bay are discussed in this paper, as well as the current status and future prospects of the experiment.
