On neutrino mass matrices in the three-family model

  • Published:

Abstract

We study some general features of real neutrino mass matrices in the case of the three-family Electroweak Model with three right-handed neutrinos. The eigenvalue equation is expressed in terms of invariants of the submatrices (Dirac and Majorana) of the neutrino mass matrix and a geometrical interpretation of quantities which enter there is given.
