1. Different flavour models can lead to specific predictions for the value of the delta phase: sin θ 23 − 1 ● Sum rules: 2 = a 0 + λ sin θ 13 cos δ + higher orders √ ● discrete symmetries models ● charged lepton corrections to : U PMNS = U † U ν e U ν e.g. M.-C. Chen and Mahanthappa; Girardi et al.; Petcov; Alonso, Gavela, Isidori, Maiani; Ding et al.; Ma; Hernandez, Smirnov; Feruglio et al.; Mohapatra, Nishi; Holthausen, Lindner, Schmidt; and others 2. In order to generate dynamically a baryon asymmetry, the Sakharov’s conditions need to be satisfied: Neutrinoless double beta decay - B (or L) violation; LBL - C, CP violation; Expansion of the Universe - departure from thermal equilibrium. Leptogenesis in models of neutrino masses 6
CP-violation in LBL experiments CP-violation will manifest itself in neutrino oscillations, due to the delta phase. The CP-asymmetry: � � P ( ν µ → ν e ; t ) − P (¯ ν µ → ¯ ν e ; t ) = − → · · · ⇥ ∆ m 2 ⇥ ∆ m 2 ⇥ ∆ m 2 ⌅ ⇤ ⇤ ⇤⇧ 21 L 23 L 31 L = 4 s 12 c 12 s 13 c 2 13 s 23 c 23 sin δ sin + sin + sin 2 E 2 E 2 E ● CP-violation requires all angles to be nonzero. ● It is proportional to the sin of the delta phase. ● If one can neglects , the asymmetry goes to zero: ∆ m 2 21 effective 2-neutrino probabilities are CP-symmetric. 7
CPV needs to be searched for in long baseline neutrino experiments which have access to 3-neutrino oscillations. A. Cervera et al., hep-ph/0002108; (1 � r A ) 2 sin 2 (1 � r A ) ∆ 31 L 1 K. Asano, H.
