Allowance for CP violation in the exponential parametrization of neutrino mixing

详细

An exponential form of the Pontecorvo–Maki–Nakagawa–Sakatamixingmatrix for neutrinos is discussed. This form makes it possible to separate the contributions of purely rotational components of the mixing matrix and elements that are responsible for CP violation. The logarithm of the mixing matrix and exact values for each parameter of the exponential neutrino mixing matrix are found on the basis of the most recent experimental data on neutrino mixing. The parameters of the real rotational part in the exponential representation of the mixing matrix and the parameters of its imaginary part, which is responsible for CP violation, are evaluated. The hypothesis of complementarity of quark and neutrino mixing is confirmed. Factorization in the form of the product of rotations about the real and imaginary axes is demonstrated.
