An attempt is made to generate the bimaximal mixings of the three species of neutrinos from the textures of the right-handed Majorana neutrino mass matrices. We extend our earlier work in this paper for the generation of the nearly degenerate as well as the inverted hierarchical models of the left-handed Majorana neutrino mass matrices using the non-diagonal textures of the right-handed Majorana neutrino mass matrices and the diagonal form of Dirac neutrino mass matrices, within the framework of the see-saw mechanism in a model independent way. Such Majorana neutrino mass models are important in explaining the recently reported result on the neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) experiment, together with the earlier established data on LMA MSW solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations.

We study the origin of neutrino masses and mixing angles which can accommodate the LMA MSW solutions of the solar neutrino anomaly as well as the solution of the atmospheric neutrino problem, within the framework of the see-saw mechanism. We employ the diagonal form of the Dirac neutrino mass matrices with the physical masses as diagonal elements in the hierarchical order. Such a choice has been motivated from the fact that the known CKM angles for the quark sector, are relatively small. We consider both possibilities where the Dirac neutrino mass matrix is either the charged lepton or the up-quark mass matrix within the framework of SO(10) GUT with or without supersymmetry. The nonzero texture of the right-handed Majorana neutrino mass matrix M R is used for the generation of the desired bimaximal mixings in a model independent way. Both hierarchical and inverted hierarchical models of the left-handed Majorana neutrino mass matrices are generated and then discussed with examples. The see-saw mass scale which is kept as a free parameter, is predicted in all the examples.

We demonstrate that an SU (2)L× U (1)Y model with the same particle content as Standard Model (SM) and discrete reflection symmetry between second and third generations of leptons gives rise to charged lepton and neutrino mass matrices which can accommodate the present solar, atmospheric, WMAP neutrino experimental results. The model predicts the value of |U13| which could be tested in neutrino factories and the effective Majorana neutrino mass <mee> which is at the lower end of the present experimental value. Neutrino masses are generated through dim=5 operators and the scale of which are constrained by the value of <mee>. If, in future neutrinoless double beta decay experiments namely, MOON, EXO, GENIUS shift the lower bound on <mee> by one order, the present model will fail to accommodate the solar neutrino mixing angle due to LMA solution.

Alternative renormalizable minimal non-SUSY SO(10) GUT model is proposed. Instead of a 126-dimensional Higgs field, a 120-dimensional Higgs filed is introduced in addition to a 10-dimensional Higgs field and plays a crucial role to reproduce the realistic charged fermion mass matrices. With contributions of 120 Higgs field, the original Witten’s scenario of inducing the right-handed Majorana neutrino mass through 2-loop diagrams becomes phenomenologically viable. This model inherits the nice features of the conventional renormalizable minimal SO(10) GUT model with [Formula: see text] Higgs fields, while supplemented with a low scale seesaw mechanism due to the 2-loop induced right-handed Majorana neutrino mass.

We investigate the comparative studies of cosmological baryon asymmetry in different neutrino mass models with and withoutθ13by considering the three-diagonal form of Dirac neutrino mass matrices and the three aspects of leptogenesis, unflavoured, flavoured, and nonthermal. We found that the estimations of any models withθ13are consistent in all the three stages of calculations of leptogenesis and the results are better than the predictions of any models withoutθ13which are consistent in a piecemeal manner with the observational data in all the three stages of leptogenesis calculations. For the normal hierarchy of Type-IA with charged lepton matrix, model with and withoutθ13predicts inflaton mass required to produce the observed baryon asymmetry to beMϕ~2.2×1011 GeV andMϕ~3.6×1010 GeV, and the corresponding reheating temperatures areTR~4.86×106 GeV andTR~4.50×106 GeV respectively. These predictions are not in conflict with the gravitino problem which required the reheating temperature to be below107 GeV. And these values apply to the recent discovery of Higgs boson of mass~125 GeV. One can also have the right order of relic dark matter abundance only if the reheating temperature is bounded to below107 GeV.

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.

We discuss the mass matrices with texture zeros for the quarks and leptons. The flavor mixing angles for the quarks are functions of the quark masses and can be calculated. The results agree with the experimental data. The texture zero mass matrices for the leptons and the see-saw mechanism are used to derive relations between the matrix elements of the lepton mixing matrix and the ratios of the neutrino masses. Using the measured neutrino mass differences, the neutrino masses can be calculated. The neutrinoless double beta decay is discussed. The effective Majorana neutrino mass, describing the neutrinoless double beta decay, can be calculated—it is about 4.6 meV. The present experimental limit is at least twenty times larger.

The discrete subgroup Δ(27) of SU(3) has some interesting properties which may be useful for understanding charged-lepton and neutrino mass matrices. Assigning leptons to the 3 and [Formula: see text] representations of Δ(27), a simple form of the Majorana neutrino mass matrix is obtained and compared to present data.

Motivated by effective low energy models of string origin, we discuss the neutrino masses and mixing within the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model supplemented by a U(1) anomalous family symmetry and additional Higgs singlet fields charged under this extra U(1). In particular, we interpret the solar and atmospheric neutrino data assuming that there are only three left-handed neutrinos which acquire Majorana masses via a lepton number violating dimension-five operator. We derive the general form of the charged lepton and neutrino mass matrices when two different pairs of singlet Higgs fields develop nonzero vacuum expectation values and show how the resulting neutrino textures are related to approximate lepton flavor symmetries. We perform a numerical analysis for one particular case and obtain solutions for masses and mixing angles, consistent with experimental data.
