Abstract

We propose a new mixing pattern for neutrinos with a nonzero mixing angle θ13\theta_{13}. Under a simple form, it agrees well with current neutrino oscillation data and displays a number of intriguing features including the μ\mu-τ\tau interchange symmetry Uμi=Uτi|U_{\mu i}|=|U_{\tau i}|, (i=1,2,3)(i=1,2,3), the trimaximal mixing U\e2=Uμ2=Uτ2=1/3|U_{\e 2}|=|U_{\mu 2}|=|U_{\tau 2}|=1/\sqrt{3}, the self-complementarity relation θ1+θ3=45deg\theta_1+\theta_3=45\deg, together with the maximal Dirac CP violation as a prediction.
