Toward unraveling the mystery of matter dominated universe 5
6
Sakharov’s 3 conditions To generate Baryon asymmetry in the unverse There is a fundamental process that violates Baryon number C and CP invariance is violated at the same time There is a deviation from thermal equilibrium acting on B violating process 6
7
Toward origin of matter dominated universe Quark sector CPV is found to be not sufficient for reproducing present baryon content Scenario for baryogenesis through lepton CP violation: Leptogenesis CPV in lepton sector is responsible for B genesis CPV in neutrino oscillation could provide a key to unravel mystery of origin of matter 7

Let’s find CPV in lepton sector I give you 1000 億円 or 1.2 Billion USD 755M GBP 55 Billion INR 1,401 Billion Won 2,130 Billion Peso 7.9 Billion 元 918 Million Euro 35 Billion Ruble 1.2 Billion CHF 8 Let’s design an experiment to search for CPV in lepton sector If you find any good idea, let’s write a paper! One condition: Within 10years
9
How? …. : Q1 Do we really need oscillation phenomena to probe CPV?? Can’t we attack CPV in an experiment which fit in an experimental hall like such as Kaon CPV or B CPV Why?? 9
10
Measuring CPV in quark sector Through loop diagram Amplitude ∝ (m u,c,t /M W ) 2 Please calculate Since quark is heavy (especially top), this process becomes measureable 10 W W s,b d u,c,t s,b W u,c,t V CKM
11
How about lepton sector? Amplitude ∝ (m /M W ) 2 Standard model process STRONGLY suppressed Thus, good field to search for physics beyond standard model 11 W e, , V MNS e Example: e

Oscillation 12 l l ’ 1 2 3
13
Oscillation (cont) 13 If E i are same for all mass eigenstates E Ei’s are same, no oscillation, in other word, Ei’s are different, we can probe mixing matrix through oscillation Difference of Ei, ie, phase advance difference is essential For m 2 ~10 -3 eV 2

Q2: What oscillation process is best? OK, now, we somehow understand we need (long baseline) oscillation phenomena to probe matrix elements and attack CPV. What type of oscillation is best? Fundamental physics reason Experimental feasibility 15
16
Disappearance ? Appearance? 16 Oscillation probability Disappearance case There is no place for complex phase in U MNS to appear Disappearance has no sensitivity on (standard) CPV
17
Appearance Conventional beam (~GeV) e Not yet discovered Dominant oscillation mode Neutrino factory/Beta beam (~10GeV) e e 17 Next talks
18
e vs appearance 18 Oscillation probability (w/ CPV) Relative effect of CPV CP conserved part CPV part case, probability A ∝ sin 2 2 23, is known to be large, relative effect of CPV becomes small Also experimentally, identification of nt (out of lots of nm interactions ) is not easy For nue appearance, A ∝ sin 2 2 13 is known to be small Large CPV effect expected

26
How to do experiment? OK, we now understand Importance of CPV in lepton sector Necessity of oscillation to probe CPV What process is suited for CPV measurement Behavior of oscillation probabilities and relevant physics So, now, let’s consider more on experimentation! 26
