The existence of CP-violation in the leptonic sector is one of the most important issues for modern science. Neutrino physics is a key to the solution of this problem. JUNO (under construction) is the near future of neutrino physics. However CP-violation is not a priority for the current scientific program. We estimate the capability of $delta_{rm CP}$ measurement, assuming a combination of the JUNO detector and a superconductive cyclotron as the antineutrino source. This method of measuring CP-violation is an alternative to conventional beam experiments. A significance level of 3$sigma$ can be reached for 22% of the $delta_{rm CP}$ range. The accuracy of measurement lies between 8$^{rm o}$ and 22$^{rm o}$. It is shown that the dominant influence on the result is the uncertainty in the mixing angle $Theta_{23}$.

We study leptonic CP violation from a new perspective. For Majorana neutrinos, a new parametrization for leptonic mixing of the form $V=O_{23} O_{12} K_{a}^{i}cdot O$ reveals interesting aspects that are less clear in the standard parametrization. We identify several important scenario-cases with mixing angles in agreement with experiment and leading to large leptonic CP violation. If neutrinos happen to be quasi-degenerate, this new parametrization might be very useful, e.g., in reducing the number of relevant parameters of models.
A low-energy non-unitary leptonic mixing matrix is a generic effect of a large class of theories accounting for neutrino masses. It is shown how the extra CP-odd phases of a general non-unitary matrix allow for sizeable CP-asymmetries in channels other than those dominant in the standard unitary case. The $ u_muto u_tau$ channel turns out to be an excellent tool to further constrain moduli and phases. Furthermore, we clarify the relationship between our approach and the so-called non-standard neutrino interactions schemes: the sensitivities explored here apply as well to such constructions.
One of the main goals of the Long Baseline Neutrino Observatory (LBNO) is to study the $L/E$ behaviour (spectral information) of the electron neutrino and antineutrino appearance probabilities, in order to determine the unknown CP-violation phase $delta_{CP}$ and discover CP-violation in the leptonic sector. The result is based on the measurement of the appearance probabilities in a broad range of energies, covering t he 1st and 2nd oscillation maxima, at a very long baseline of 2300 km. The sensitivity of the experiment can be maximised by optimising the energy spectra of the neutrino and anti-neutrino fluxes. Such an optimisation requires exploring an extended range of parameters describing in details the geometries and properties of the primary protons, hadron target and focusing elements in the neutrino beam line. In this paper we present a numerical solution that leads to an optimised energy spectra and study its impact on the sensitivity of LBNO to discover leptonic CP violation. In the optimised flux both 1st and 2nd oscillation maxima play an important role in the CP sensitivity. The studies also show that this configuration is less sensitive to systematic errors (e.g. on the total event rates) than an experiment which mainly relies on the neutrino-antineutrino asymmetry at the 1st maximum to determine the existence of CP-violation.
We introduce the CP violating scalar leptoquark $S_3$ to explain the measured values of the lepton universality ratios $R_{K^{(*)}}$. We derive constraints on the CP-even and CP-odd components of the leptoquark Yukawa couplings stemming from effects in $b to s mu mu$ and $B_s$ mixing. For the $b to s mu mu$ processes we impose $R_{K^{(*)}}$, $mathcal{B}(B_s to mu^+ mu^-)$, as well as CP-sensitive angular asymmetries $A_{7,8,9}$, whereas in the $B_s$ mixing sector $Delta M_s$ and $S_{psiphi}$ are considered. Combining the constraints within the $S_3$ model reveals that a large CP phase with a definite sign is perfectly viable for a leptoquark of mass below a few TeV. For larger mass of the $S_3$ leptoquark the CP phase is suppressed due to the observables pertaining to the $B_s$ system. We provide predictions of direct and mixing-induced CP asymmetries in $B to K mu mu$ that could reveal the presence of the novel CP phase.
We perform realistic simulations of the current and future long baseline experiments such as T2K, NO$ u$A, DUNE and T2HK in order to determine their ultimate potential in probing neutrino oscillation parameters. We quantify the potential of these experiments to underpin the octant of the atmospheric angle $theta_{23}$ as well as the value and sign of the CP phase $delta_{CP}$.
