Radiative Corrections to Neutrino Mixing and CP Violation in the Minimal Seesaw Model with Leptogenesis
Radiative corrections to neutrino mixing and CP violation are analyzed in the
minimal seesaw model with two heavy right-handed neutrinos. We find that
textures of the effective Majorana neutrino mass matrix are essentially stable
against renormalization effects. Taking account of the
Frampton-Glashow-Yanagida ansatz for the Dirac neutrino Yukawa coupling matrix,
we calculate the running effects of light neutrino masses, lepton flavor mixing
angles and CP-violating phases for both (normal mass hierarchy) and
(inverted mass hierarchy) cases in the standard model and in its
minimal supersymmetric extension. Very instructive predictions for the
cosmological baryon number asymmetry via thermal leptogenesis are also given
with the help of low-energy neutrino mixing quantities.Comment: 21 pages, 6 figures; more references adde
Renormalization Group Running of Lepton Mixing Parameters in See-Saw Models with Flavor Symmetry
We study the renormalization group running of the tri-bimaximal mixing
predicted by the two typical flavor models at leading order. Although the
textures of the mass matrices are completely different, the evolution of
neutrino mass and mixing parameters is found to display approximately the same
pattern. For both normal hierarchy and inverted hierarchy spectrum, the quantum
corrections to both atmospheric and reactor neutrino mixing angles are so small
that they can be neglected. The evolution of the solar mixing angle
depends on and neutrino mass spectrum, the deviation
from its tri-bimaximal value could be large. Taking into account the
renormalization group running effect, the neutrino spectrum is constrained by
experimental data on in addition to the self-consistency
conditions of the models, and the inverted hierarchy spectrum is disfavored for
large . The evolution of light-neutrino masses is approximately
described by a common scaling factor.Comment: 23 pages, 6figure
