Abstract

Without adhering to any specific model, we have presented 4 [Formula: see text] 4 quark mixing matrix as an extension of the 3 [Formula: see text] 3 Particle Data Group (PDG) parametrization of the Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa (CKM) matrix Using unitarity constraints as well as the hierarchy among the elements of the 3 [Formula: see text] 3 CKM matrix, we have found the hierarchy among the fourth row and fourth column elements of the 4 [Formula: see text] 4 quark mixing matrix. Further, for the fourth generation case, we have explicitly found the nine independent rephasing invariant parameters [Formula: see text]. Also, using phenomenological estimates of the fourth row and fourth column elements, we have numerically evaluated these nine parameters.
