Non-diagonal charged lepton mass matrix and non-zero
Assuming that the neutrino mass matrix is diagonalized by the tribimaximal
mixing matrix, we explore the textures for the charged lepton mass matrix that
render an lepton mixing matrix consistent with data. In particular
we are interested in finding the textures with the maximum number of zeros. We
explore the cases of real matrices with three and four zeros and find that only
ten matrices with three zeros provide solutions in agreement with data. We
present the successful Yukawa textures including the relative sizes of their
non-zero entries as well as some new and interesting relations among the
entries of these textures in terms of the charged lepton masses. We also show
that these relations can be obtained directly from a parametrization of the
charged lepton mixing matrix .Comment: 16 pages, two figures. A parametrization of the mixing matrix
was introduced to explain observed patterns in textures. References adde
Glueball enhancement by color de-confinement
High energy heavy ion collisions lead to the formation of a strong coupling
de-confined phase in which the lightest glueballs are numerous and stable. We
analyze how their properties manifest themselves in experimental spectra and
show that they provide a good signature for color de-confinement.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
A Search for the Fourth SM Family Fermions and E_6 Quarks at Colliders
The potential of colliders to investigate the fourth SM
family fermions predicted by flavour democracy has been analyzed. It is shown
that muon colliders are advantageous for both pair production of fourth family
fermions and resonance production of fourth family quarkonia. Also isosinglet
quarks production at colliders has been investigated.Comment: 9 pages, 5 table
Prospects and status of quark mass renormalization in three-flavour QCD
We present the current status of a revised strategy to compute the running of
renormalized quark masses in QCD with three flavours of massless O(a) improved
Wilson quarks. The strategy employed uses the standard finite-size scaling
method in the Schr\"odinger functional and accommodates for the
non-perturbative scheme-switch which becomes necessary at intermediate
renormalized couplings as discussed in [arXiv:1411.7648].Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures, 1 table; Proceedings of the 33rd International

Nearly Bi-Maximal Neutrino Mixing, Muon g-2 Anomaly and Lepton-Flavor-Violating Processes
We interpret the newly observed muon g-2 anomaly in the framework of a
leptonic Higgs doublet model with nearly degenerate neutrino masses and nearly
bi-maximal neutrino mixing. Useful constraints are obtained on the rates of
lepton-flavor-violating rare decays ,
and as well as the - conversion ratio .
We find that , and
depend crucially on possible non-zero but samll values of the
neutrino mixing matrix element , and they are also sensitive to the
Dirac-type CP-violating phase. In particular, we show that , and are approximately in the ratio if is much larger than , and in the
ratio if is much lower than , where and are the corresponding mass-squared
differences of atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations.Comment: LaTex 6 pages (2 PS figures). Phys. Rev. D (in printing
The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and radiative lepton decays
The leptons are viewed as composite objects, exhibiting anomalous magnetic
moments and anomalous flavor-changing transition moments. The decay is expected to occur with a branching ratio of the same order as the
present experimental limit.Comment: 5 page
Democratic Neutrino Mixing and Radiative Corrections
The renormalization effect on a specific ansatz of lepton mass matrices,
arising naturally from the breaking of flavor democracy for charged leptons and
that of mass degeneracy for light neutrinos, is studied from a superhigh energy
scale M_0 \sim 10^{13} GeV to the electroweak scale in the framework of the
minimal supersymmetric standard model. We find that the democratic neutrino
mixing pattern obtained from this ansatz may in general be instable against
radiative corrections. With the help of similar flavor symmetries we prescribe
a slightly different scheme of lepton mass matrices at the scale M_0, from
which the democratic mixing pattern of lepton flavors can be achieved, after
radiative corrections, at the experimentally accessible scales.Comment: RevTex 8 pages. Phys. Rev. D (in printing
and Expansion of the Weak Mixing Matrix
We perform a and expansion of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi- Maskawa
mixing matrix. Data suggest that the dominant parts of the Yukawa couplings are
factorizable into sets of numbers , , and ,
associated, respectively, with the left-handed doublets, the right-handed up
singlets, and the right- handed down singlets. The first order expansion is
consistent with Wolfenstein parameterization, which is an expansion in to third order. The mixing matrix elements in the present approach
are partitioned into factors determined by the relative orientations of , , and and the dynamics provided by the subdominant
mass matrices. A short discussion is given of some experimental support and a
generalized Fritzsch model is used to contrast our approach.Comment: A set of references has been added to ealier related wor
Hierarchy and Up-Down Parallelism of Quark Mass Matrices
In view of the quark mass hierarchy and in the assumption of the up-down
parallelism, we derive two phenomenologically-favored patterns of Hermitian
quark mass matrices from the quark flavor mixing matrix. We compare one of them
with two existing {\it Anstze} proposed by Rosner and Worah and by
Roberts {\it et al}, and find that only the latter is consistent with the
present experimental data.Comment: RevTex 9 pages. Accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.
Predicting leptonic CP violation in the light of Daya Bay result
In the light of the recent Daya Bay result the reactor angle is about 9
degrees, we reconsider the model presented in arXiv:1005.3482 showing that,
when all neutrino oscillation parameters are taken at their best fit values of
Schwetz et al and the reactor angle to be the central value of Daya Bay, the
predicted value of the CP phase is approximately 45 degrees.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, update of arXiv:1005.348
