Cobimaximal Neutrino Mixing from $S_3 times Z_2$


Abstract in English

It has recently been shown that the phenomenologically successful pattern of cobimaximal neutrino mixing ($theta_{13} eq 0$, $theta_{23} = pi/4$, and $delta_{CP} = pm pi/2$) may be achieved in the context of the non-Abelian discrete symmetry $A_4$. In this paper, the same goal is achieved with $S_3 times Z_2$. The residual lepton $Z_3$ triality in the case of $A_4$ is replaced here by $Z_2 times Z_2$. The associated phenomenology of the scalar sector is discussed.
