Interference phenomenon and geometric phase for Dirac neutrino in pion+ decay


Abstract in English

We analyze the geometric phase in the neutrino oscillation phenomenon, which follows the pion decay pi+ --> mu+ + u_{mu}. Its value pi is consistent with the present-day global analysis of the Standard Model neutrino oscillation parameters, accounting for the nonzero value of theta_13. The impact of the charge-parity (CP) violating phase delta, the neutrinos nature, and the new physics is discussed.
