Nonzeroθ13for Neutrino Mixing in the Context ofA4Symmetry

Abstract

In the original 2004 paper which first derived tribimaximal mixing in the context of A(4), i.e., the non-Abelian finite symmetry group of the tetrahedron, as its simplest application, it was also pointed out how θ(13) ≠ 0 may be accommodated. On the strength of the new T2K result that 0.03(0.04) ≤ sin(2)2θ(13) ≤ 0.28(0.34) for δ(CP) = 0 and normal (inverted) neutrino mass hierarchy, we perform a more detailed analysis of how this original idea may be realized in the context of A(4).
