Towards a grand unified picture for neutrino and quark mixings
نویسنده
چکیده
The comparison of the CKM mixing angles with the leptonic mixings implied by the recent atmospheric and solar neutrino data exhibits an interesting complementarity. This pattern can be understood in the context of the SU(5) grand unification, assuming that the fermion mass matrices have Fritzsch-like structures but are not necessarily symmetric. (The present contribution is based on the paper in ref. [1].)

Grand unified textures for neutrino and quark mixings
The atmospheric neutrino data imply large mixing between the νμ and ντ states, θ23 = (45 ± 13)◦, while the MSW solution to the solar neutrino problem needs very small mixing angle θ12 = (1− 4)◦. In the quark sector the situation is rather opposite – the 23 mixing is tiny, θ23 ≃ 2◦, versus reasonable 12 mixing, θ12 ≃ 13◦. We show that such complementary patterns of the quark and leptonic mixings...
متن کاملLepton mass matrices from a quark-lepton analogy
We study the implications of having a similarity between quark and lepton mixing in the Dirac sector of the Standard Model plus the right-handed neutrino. This enable us to describe all masses and mixings in the Dirac sector in terms of only five parameters: three mass scales mb, mτ and mt, one parameter λ describing all the mixings, and a CP violating phase in the quark sector. Then, from expe...
متن کاملThe Flavour Puzzle from an Orbifold GUT Perspective
Neutrino masses and mixings are very different from quark masses and mixings. This puzzle is a crucial hint in the search for the mechanism which determines fermion masses in grand unified theories. We study the flavour problem in an SO(10) GUT model in six dimensions compactified on an orbifold. Three sequential families are localized at three branes where SO(10) is broken to its three GUT sub...
متن کاملA See-saw Mechanism for Large Neutrino Mixing from Small Quark and Lepton Mixings
I introduce and sketch the main features of those see-saw models 1 where a large atmospheric mixing can be achieved starting from nearly diagonal matrices for charged leptons, Dirac neutrinos and Majorana right-handed neutrinos. It turns out that these models can be realized in Grand Unified Theories and they are well compatible with the related phenomenology of fermion masses and mixings.
متن کاملDesy 01-186 Neutrino Masses in Guts and the Baryon Asymmetry
We discuss the implications of large neutrino mixings for grand unified theories based on the seesaw mechanism. In SU(5) GUTs large mixings can be accomodated by means of U(1)F flavour symmetries. In these models the heavy Majorana neutrinos are essentially decoupled from low energy neutrino physics. On the contrary in SO(10) GUTs large neutrino mixings severely constrain the mass spectrum of t...
