Neutrino masses and flavour symmetry

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1971-1996)

Summary

The problem of neutrino masses and mixing angles is analysed in a class of supersymmetric grand unified models, withSO(10) gauge symmetry and globalU(2) flavour symmetry. Adopting the seesaw mechanism for the generation of the neutrino masses, one obtains a mass matrix for the left-handed neutrinos which is directly related to the parameters of the charged sector, while the unknown parameters of the right-handed Majorana mass matrix are inglobed in a single factor.
