Third Mixing Angle

چکیده

We show that the Hidden Local Symmetry Model, supplemented with well-known procedures for breaking flavor SU(3) and nonet symmetry, provides all the information contained in the standard Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) Lagrangian L (0) + L (1). This allows to rely on radiative decays of light mesons (V P γ and P γγ) in order to extract some numerical information of relevance to ChPT: a value for Λ 1 = 0.20 ± 0.04, a quark mass ratio of ≃ 21.2 ± 2.4, and a negligible departure from the Gell-Mann–Okubo mass formula. The mixing angles are θ 8 = −20.40 • ± 0.96 • and θ 0 = −0.05 • ± 0.99 •. We also give the values of all decay constants. It is shown that the common mixing pattern with one mixing angle θ P is actually quite appropriate and algebraically related to the η/η ′ mixing pattern presently preferred by the ChPT community. For instance the traditional θ P is functionally related to the ChPT θ 8 and fulfills θ P ≃ θ 8 /2. The vanishing of θ 0 , supported by all data on radiative decays, gives a novel relation between mixing angles and the violation of nonet symmetry in the pseudoscalar sector. Finally, it is shown that the interplay of nonet symmetry breaking through U(3) → SU(3)× U(1) satisfies all requirements of the physics of radiative decays without any need for additional glueballs.

Neutrino Experiments and Their Implications

Solar neutrino experiments, especially with the announcement of recent results from the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) , have reached the precision stage. An analysis of the data from SNO as well as data from other solar neutrino experiments (Super-Kamiokande [SK] , Chlorine , and Gallium ), combined with the data from the reactor experiment KAMLAND , place severe constraints on the neutrin...

Numerical investigation of thermal mixing of shear thinning fluids in one-way opposing jets

In recent years, impinging streams have received increasing interest for their high efficiency in heat and mass transfer. This numerical study was conducted to investigate flow and heat transfer characteristics of one-way opposing jets of non-Newtonian fluids. Effects of Reynolds number impinging angle, momentum ratio and flow behavior index on mixing index were evaluated. The results showed im...

Flavour Mixing and Fermion Mass Generation as a Result of Symmetry Breaking

It is shown that a simple breaking of the subnuclear democracy leads to a successful description of the mixing between the second and third family. In the lepton channel the ν µ − ν τ oscillations are expected to be described by a mixing angle of 2.65 • which might be observed soon in neutrino experiments.

The renormalization group analysis of the large lepton flavor mixing and the neutrino mass

The Superkamiokande experiment suggests the large flavor mixing between νμ and ντ . We show that the mixing angle receives significant corrections from the renormalization group equation (RGE) when both the second and the third generation neutrino masses are larger than O(0.1eV). This means that the mixing angle must be small at the decoupling scale of right-handed neutrinos in the model contai...

The three neutrino model has 9 physical parameters, 3 neutrino masses, 3 mixing angles and 3 CP violating phases. Among them, neutrino oscillation experiments can probe 6 parameters: 2 mass squared differences, 3 mixing angles, and 1 CP phase. The experiments performed so far determined the magnitudes of the two mass squared differences, the sign of the smaller mass squared difference, the magn...
