Fundamental Mass

The fermion masses and mixing angles are fitted using only three free parameters in a nonsupersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, with new, approximately conserved chiral gauge quantum numbers broken by a set of Higgs fields. The fundamental mass scale of this anti-grand-unification model is given by the Planck mass. We also calculate neutrino mixing angles and masses, as well as CP violation from the CKM matrix. A good fit to the observed fermion masses is obtained, but our predictions of the neutrino masses are too small to lead to any observable neutrino oscillation effects claimed today, without introducing another mass scale. We also give some arguments in support of this type of model based on the observed fermion masses.

Abstract If dark matter (DM) interacts with the Standard Model (SM) via the kinetic mixing (KM) portal, it necessitates the existence of portal matter (PM) particles which carry both dark and SM quantum numbers that will appear in vacuum polarization-like loop graphs. In addition to the familiar ∼ eϵQ strength, QED-like interaction for the dark photon (DP), in some setups different loop graphs of these PM states can also induce other coupling structures for the SM fermions that may come to dominate in at least some regions of parameter space regions and which can take the form of ‘dark’ moments, e.g., magnetic dipole-type interactions in the IR, associated with a large mass scale, Λ. In this paper, motivated by a simple toy model, we perform a phenomenological investigation of a possible loop-induced dark magnetic dipole moment for SM fermions, in particular, for the electron. We show that at the phenomenological level such a scenario can not only be made compatible with existing experimental constraints for a significant range of correlated values for Λ and the dark U(1)D gauge coupling, gD, but can also lead to quantitatively different signatures once the DP is discovered. In this setup, assuming complex scalar DM to satisfy CMB constraints, parameter space regions where the DP decays invisibly are found to be somewhat preferred if PM mass limits from direct searches at the LHC and our toy model setup are all taken seriously. High precision searches for, or measurements of, the e+e− → γ + DP process at Belle II are shown to provide some of the strongest future constraints on this scenario.

Three Phases

CP violation in neutrino interactions is described by three phases contained in Pontecorvo–Maki–Nakagawa–Sakata mixing matrix (U PMNS ). We argue that the phenomenologically consistent result of the Dirac CP violation can be obtained if U PMNS is constructed along bipair neutrino mixing scheme, namely, requiring that |U12| = |U32| and |U22| = |U23| (case 1) and |U12| = |U22| and |U32| = |U33| (case 2), where Uij stands for the i × j matrix element of U PMNS . As a result, the solar, atmospheric and reactor neutrino mixing angles θ12, θ23 and θ13, respectively, are correlated to satisfy cos 2θ12 = sin 2 θ23 - tan 2 θ13 (case 1) or cos 2θ12 = cos 2 θ23 - tan 2 θ13 (case 2). Furthermore, if Dirac CP violation is observed to be maximal, θ23 is determined by θ13 to be: [Formula: see text] (case 1) or [Formula: see text] (case 2). For the case of non-maximal Dirac CP violation, we perform numerical computation to show relations between the CP-violating Dirac phase and the mixing angles.

It is pointed out (not for the first time) that the minimal Standard Model, without additional gauge-singlet right-handed neutrinos or isotriplet Higgs fields, allows for nonvanishing neutrino masses and mixing. The required interaction term is non-renormalizable and violates B-L conservation. The ultimate explanation of this interaction term may or may not rely on grand unification.

The μ - τ symmetry can reproduce the consistent results with experimental data of θ13, and θ23 (θ13, and θ23 respectively denote the νe - ντ, and νμ - ντ, mixing angles). However, we can not address the issue of the leptonic CP violation in μ - τ symmetric models. So we add the μ - τ symmetry breaking part to include the CP violation. We characterize leptonic CP violation in terms of three phases, where one is conventional phase δ and others are additional phases ρ and γ. These δ, ρ and γ are, respectively, the phases of νe - ντ, νe - νμ and νμ - ντ mixings. The ρ and γ are redundant but the effect of ρ remains in the leptonic CP violation which is characterized by δ + ρ. The δ arises from the μ - τ symmetry breaking part of the Meμ and Meτ while ρ arises from of μ - τ symmetric part of the Meμ and Meτ, where Mij stands for ij (i,j = e,μ,τ) element of M(= [Formula: see text] for Mν being a flavor neutrino mass matrix). Moreover, θ23 can be exactly estimated to be: [Formula: see text] ( sin θ ∝ sin θ13 cos (δ + ρ)[Formula: see text], sin ϕ ∝ Mμμ - Mττ, where [Formula: see text] is the solar neutrino mass difference squared). The conditions of maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing are given by [Formula: see text] and Mμμ = Mττ,which indicate maximal Dirac CP violation.

In this paper, we present a model independent analysis of Leptonic CP violation for some well-known mixing scenarios. In particular, we considered modified schemes for bimaximal (BM), democratic (DC), hexagonal (HG) and tribimaximal (TBM) mixing for our numerical investigation. These model independent corrections to mixing matrices are parametrized in terms of complex rotation matrices [Formula: see text] with related modified PMNS matrix of the forms [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is a complex rotation in [Formula: see text] sector and [Formula: see text] is unperturbed mixing scheme. We present generic formulae for mixing angles, Dirac CP phase [Formula: see text] and Jarlskog invariant [Formula: see text] in terms of correction parameters. The parameter space of each modified mixing case is scanned for fitting neutrino mixing angles using [Formula: see text] approach and the corresponding predictions for Leptonic CP phase [Formula: see text] and Jarlskog invariant [Formula: see text] has been evaluated from allowed parameter space. The obtained ranges are reported for all viable cases.

We study a neutrino mass model based on [Formula: see text] flavor symmetry which accommodates lepton mass, mixing with nonzero [Formula: see text] and CP violation phase. The spontaneous symmetry breaking in the model is imposed to obtain the realistic neutrino mass and mixing pattern at the tree-level with renormalizable interactions. Indeed, the neutrinos get small masses from one [Formula: see text] doublet and two [Formula: see text] singlets in which one being in [Formula: see text] and the two others in [Formula: see text] under [Formula: see text] with both the breakings [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are taken place in charged lepton sector and [Formula: see text] in neutrino sector. The model also gives a remarkable prediction of Dirac CP violation [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] in both the normal and inverted spectrum which is still missing in the neutrino mixing matrix. The relation between lepton mixing angles is also represented.

We consider an exact µ-τ reflection symmetry in neutrino sector realized at the GUT scale in the context of the seesaw model with and without supersymmetry. It is shown that the renormalization group (RG) evolution from the GUT scale to the seesaw scale gives rise to breaking of the µ-τ symmetry which is essential to achieve a successful leptogenesis. We show that CP violation responsible for the generation of baryon asymmetry of our universe can be directly linked with CP violation measurable through neutrino oscillation as well as neutrino mixing angles θ12 and θ13.

Using the fact that the neutrino mixing matrix [Formula: see text], where Ue and Uν result from the diagonalization of the charged lepton and neutrino mass matrices, we analyze the predictions based on the sum rules which the Dirac phase δ present in U satisfies when Uν has a form dictated by, or associated with, discrete flavor symmetries and Ue has a "minimal" form (in terms of angles and phases it contains) that can provide the requisite corrections to Uν, so that the reactor, atmospheric and solar neutrino mixing angles θ13, θ23 and θ12 have values compatible with the current data.
