Nearly right unitarity triangle and CP phase in quark and lepton flavor mixings
Abstract
The nearly right unitarity triangle can be simply obtained if a quark mass matrix is written as a linear combination of real rank-1 matrices and the coefficient which gives the mass of the second generation is pure imaginary. Supposing that the source of the CP violation is in the Yukawa coupling to an additional Higgs field which provides a factor for the strange quark and muon mass ratio, we obtain that the angle α= φ2 of the unitarity triangle shifts from 90 o by units of Vub/Vus, and is postdicted as α 87 o or 91 o. The Dirac CP phase δ which appears in the three-flavor neutrino oscillations is obtained to be |δ| 80 o if the neutrino mass matrix gives tri-bimaximal-like mixing form. If the factor 3 for the muon and strange quark mass is considered in a simple manner in the quark-lepton unification, we obtain three distinctive prediction of δ for nearly right-angled phase as |δ| 70 o, 90 o, or 110 o in an idealistic orthogonal structure of the neutrino mass matrix. The deviation from 90 o is roughly given by (1/3) by inputting the experimental measurements.
