A Maximal Atmospheric Mixing from a Maximal CP Violating Phase

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-11-11 v2

Abstract

We point out an elegant mechanism to predict a maximal atmospheric angle, which is based on a maximal CP violating phase difference between second and third lepton families in the flavour symmetry basis. In this framework, a discussion of the predictions for theta_{12}, |U_{e3}|, delta and their possible correlations is provided. We also present an explicit realisation in terms of an SO(3) flavour symmetry model.
