Neutrinos are neutral leptons and there exist three types of neutrinos (electron neutrinos νe, muon neutrinos νµ and tau neutrinos ντ). These classifications are referred to as neutrinos’s “flavors”. Oscillations between the different flavors are known as neutrino oscillations, which occurs when neutrinos have mass and non-zero mixing. Neutrino mixing is governed by the PMNS mixing matrix. The PMNS mixing matrix is constructed as the product of three independent rotations. With that, we can describe the numerical parameters of the matrix in a graphical form called the unitary triangle, giving rise to CP violation. We can calculate the four parameters of the mixing matrix to draw the unitary triangle. The area of the triangle is a measure of the amount of CP violation.

CP violation in neutrino interactions is described by three phases contained in Pontecorvo–Maki–Nakagawa–Sakata mixing matrix (U PMNS ). We argue that the phenomenologically consistent result of the Dirac CP violation can be obtained if U PMNS is constructed along bipair neutrino mixing scheme, namely, requiring that |U12| = |U32| and |U22| = |U23| (case 1) and |U12| = |U22| and |U32| = |U33| (case 2), where Uij stands for the i × j matrix element of U PMNS . As a result, the solar, atmospheric and reactor neutrino mixing angles θ12, θ23 and θ13, respectively, are correlated to satisfy cos 2θ12 = sin 2 θ23 - tan 2 θ13 (case 1) or cos 2θ12 = cos 2 θ23 - tan 2 θ13 (case 2). Furthermore, if Dirac CP violation is observed to be maximal, θ23 is determined by θ13 to be: [Formula: see text] (case 1) or [Formula: see text] (case 2). For the case of non-maximal Dirac CP violation, we perform numerical computation to show relations between the CP-violating Dirac phase and the mixing angles.

Important new results have been presented at this conference. The direct violation of CP in K0 → π + π has been firmly established in two independent experiments, NA48 at CERN and KTeV at Fermilab. Both Babar at SLAC and Belle at Kek have determined the CP violation in [Formula: see text] oscillations through the study of the golden KS + Ψ decay mode. The observed CP violation agrees with the expectations of the Standard model, based on the quark-mixing phenomenon. The first results of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory, SNO, suggest that the long-lasting solar neutrino puzzle has been finally solved in terms of neutrino oscillations. Results appeared after the conference which modify the theoretical prediction of the muon anomaly. This new result, if confirmed, would drastically reduce the significance of the discrepancy between the theoretically expected value for the muon anomaly and the recent results of the Brookhaven experiment.

In recent years, Bs →τ+τ- rare decay has attracted a lot of attention since it is very sensitive to the structure of standard model (SM) and potential source of new physics beyond SM. In this paper, we study the effect of both Z and Z′-mediated flavor-changing neutral currents on the Bs →τ+τ- decay. We find the branching ratio B(Bs→τ+τ-) is enhanced relative to SM prediction, which would help to explain the recently observed CP-violation from like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in the B system.
