  10. Quark mixing (CKM): θ12 ~13°→ θ23 ~2°→ θ13 ~0.2°→ δ~65° Lepton mixing (MNS): θ23 ~45°→ θ12 ~33°→ θ13<10°→ δ/ρ/σ Flavor Mixing and CP Violation

  11. One-loop renormalization group equation of (with diagonal): RGEs of Neutrino Masses Below the seesaw scale (MSSM) After SSB at the electroweak scale

  12. RGEs of Mixing Angles Of 3 angles, is most sensitive to RGE effects

  13. RGEs of CP-violating Phases (I) The RGE evolution of the Dirac phase depends on and : If and were vanishing, the leading terms would vanish; The radiative generation of is possible. (Luo, Mei, Xing05).

  14. RGEs of CP-violating Phases (II) The RGE evolution of Majorana phases and depends on :

  15. Numerical Examples (1-I) We concentrate on the case that 3 neutrino masses are nearly degenerate and. (Luo, Mei, Xing2005) Seesaw scale Electroweak scale

  16. Numerical Examples (1-II)

  17. Neutrinoless double-beta decay: Allowed! Numerical Examples (2)

  18. Simultaneous generation of appreciable and from , no problem; and from , no problem. But and from , suppressed Numerical Examples (3)

  19. The Dirac phase can be radiatively generated from one or two Majorana phases; even is achievable. The radiative generation of either Majorana phase or is okay, but difficult to simultaneously generate both of them. RGE Running of CPV Phases Three CP-violating phases are entangled with one another in the one-loop RGE evolution. The parameters of Majorana neutrinos run faster than those of Dirac neutrino in most cases (Xing, Zhang06) Helpful for model building, to establish a kind of connection between the phenomena of CP violation at high and low scales. But a specific relation between leptogenesis and CP violation in neutrino oscillations is strongly model-dependent.

  20. minimal Seesaw Model

  21. The minimal seesaw model (MSM): 2Right-handed neutrinos added to MSSM • Principle of minimal particle content • SU(2)U(1) gauge symmetry preserved • Lepton number violating MRintegrated out, leading to a dimension-5 operator with an effective coupling matrix: Seesaw relation The Minimal Seesaw Model

  22. Leptogenesis in the MSM An incomplete list of recent works on the MSM and leptogenesis •Frampton, Glashow, Yanagidahep-ph/0208157(PLB) •Endoh et alhep-ph/0209020(PRL) •Raidal, Strumiahep-ph/0210021(PLB) •Rabyhep-ph/0302027(PLB) •Dutta, Mohapatrahep-ph/0305059(PRD) •Barger, Dicus, He, Lihep-ph/0310278(PLB) •Guo, Xinghep-ph/0310326(PLB) •Ibarra, Rosshep-ph/0312138(PLB) •Mei, Xinghep-ph/0312167(PRD) •Turzynskihep-ph/0401219(PLB) •Chang, Kang, Siyeonhep-ph/0404187(PLB) CPV phase entanglement Radiative corrections

  23. SmirnovPlot • Normal -mass hierarchy: • Inverted -mass hierarchy:: Neutrino Masses in the MSM There is a massless neutrino eigenstate! is of rank2, henceDet()=0holds, or

  24. •The seesaw models with a single right-handed neutrino ruledout (ifof rank1,2massless -eigenstates, no CP violation). One-loop RGE: Some Comments Some comments on the features of MSM: •The2N-seesaw models may serve as an approximation of the3N-seesaw models withN3decoupled in the limit ofM3 » M1,2. •The texture ofis essentially stable against RGE effects fromM1toMZ. So isDet()=0 or m1 =0orm3 =0.

  25. RGE-running Functions Results(Mei, Xing04): Det()keepsvanishing atMZ 6parameters ofYatMZ

  26. A typical example: Frampton-Glashow-Yanagida ansatz (02) FGY Ansatz in the MSM Flavor structure: texture zeros? The seesaw mechanism itself is not quantitatively predictive, unless a specific lepton flavor structure is assumed. A combination of the seesaw mechanism and a certain flavor symmetry or a few texture zeros, whose empirical role is to reduce the number of free parameters, is therefore needed.

  27. at low scale CP-violating Phases It turns out that two CP-violating phases are calculable! (Guo, Xing04) Due tom1=0, thephase can be rotated away.

  28. One-zero textures selected by data(Xing04): Pattern Condition   or   or     or    

  29. Interference leads to CPV If the interactions of N1 are in thermal equilibrium when N2 decays, can be erased before N1 decays. Then only , produced by the out-of-equilibrium decay of N1 , can survive. Leptogenesis in the MSM Leptogenesis at the seesaw scale (Fukugita, Yanagida86) Lepton-number-violating and CP-violating decays:

  30. If the RGE effect were neglected, one would obtain: Independent ofM2! (Guo, Xing04) In both cases,is directlyrelated to. will vanishif vanishes, or vice versa. Then the RGE-corrected result is (Mei, Xing04) Leptogenesis in the MSM Quantities atM1are expressed by those atMZ. Direct link betweenhighandlowscale CP-violating phenomena!

  31. The above lepton number asymmetry is eventually converted into a net baryon number asymmetry via the non-perturbative sphaleron process(Kuzmin, Rubakov, Shaposhnikov85): Leptogenesis in the MSM Cosmological baryon asymmetry: Lepton number asymmetry from: If the effective neutrino mass parameter lies in the range , then dilution factordwill approximately readas follows:

  33. •M1 must be heavy enough (). And a conflict between achieving the successful thermal leptogenesis and avoiding the over-production of gravitinos ( ) exists in MSSM. •Distinguishing between the SM and MSSM results needs other experimental information (for example, those MSSM-motivated LFV processes etc.) •Distinguishing between and is possible at low energy scales, as they belong separately to normal and inverted neutrino mass hierarchies. Leptogenesis in the MSM Some comments: Concluding remark: Leptonic CP violation to be observed might be one of the key reasons for the observed matter-antimatter asymmetry of our universe—fundamentally important
