Fermion Mass and Mixing in a Simple Extension of the Standard Model Based on T7 Flavor Symmetry

Аннотация

We build a simple Standard Model extension based on T₇ flavor symmetry which accommodates lepton mass, mixing with non-zero θ₁₃, and CP violation phase. The lepton mixing matrix is obtained from three triplets and one singlet under T₇ symmetry, and the charged-lepton mass is derived through the spontaneous symmetry breaking by just one T₇ triplet (φ), while neutrinos get small masses from one SU(2) _L doublet and two SU(2)_L singlets in which one is in 1 and the two others are in 3 and 3* under T₇, respectively. There exist viable parameters of the model that predict the effective Majorana neutrino mass with values m_β ≃ 10⁻² eV and 4.95 × 10⁻² eV as well as a lightest neutrino mass m_light ≃ 4.97 × 10⁻³ eV and 1.61 × 10⁻³ eV for the normal and inverted neutrino mass hierarchies, respectively. The model also gives a remarkable prediction of Dirac CP violation δ_CP ≃ 303.3° in the normal hierarchy and δ_CP ≃ 56.69° in the inverted hierarchy which is still missing in the neutrino mixing matrix. The quark mixing angles of the model are closed to the experimental data, whereas the obtained values for the quark masses are consistent with with the experimental data at the tree level.
