Confronting the seesaw mechanism with neutrino oscillations: a general and explicit analytical bridge

With the help of a full Euler-like block parametrization of the flavor structure for the canonical seesaw mechanism, we present the first general and explicit analytical calculations of the two neutrino mass-squared differences, three flavor mixing angles and the effective Dirac CP-violating phase responsible for the primary behaviors of neutrino oscillations. Such model-independent results will pave the way for testing the seesaw mechanism at low energies.
