摘　　要：In the framework of the canonical seesaw model,we present a simple but viable scenario to explicitly break an S3L×S3R flavor symmetry in the leptonic sector.It turns out that the leptonic flavor mixing matrix is completely determined by the mass ratios of the charged leptons（i.e.,me/mμand mμ/mτ） and those of light neutrinos（i.e.,m1/m2 and m2/m3）.The latest global-fit results of the three neutrino mixing angles {θ12,θ13,θ23}and two neutrino mass-squared differences {？m212,？m312} at the 3σ level are used to constrain the parameter space of {m1/m2,m2/m3}.The predictions for the mass spectrum and flavor mixing are highlighted：（1） the neutrino mass spectrum shows a hierarchical pattern and a normal ordering,e.g.,m1≈2.2meV,m2≈8.8 meV and m3≈52.7 meV;（2） only the first octant of θ23 is allowed,namely,41.8？ θ23 43.3？;（3） the Dirac C P-violating phase δ ≈-22？deviates significantly from the maximal value-90？.All these predictions are ready to be tested in ongoing and forthcoming neutrino oscillation experiments.Moreover,we demonstrate that the cosmological matter-antimatter asymmetry can be explained via resonant leptogenesis,including the individual lepton-flavor effects.In our scenario,leptonic C P violation at low-and high-energy scales is closely connected.In the framework of the canonical seesaw model,we present a simple but viable scenario to explicitly break an S3L×S3R flavor symmetry in the leptonic sector.It turns out that the leptonic flavor mixing matrix is completely determined by the mass ratios of the charged leptons（i.e.,me/mμand mμ/mτ） and those of light neutrinos（i.e.,m1/m2 and m2/m3）.The latest global-fit results of the three neutrino mixing angles {θ12,θ13,θ23}and two neutrino mass-squared differences {？m212,？m312} at the 3σ level are used to constrain the parameter space of {m1/m2,m2/m3}.The predictions for the mass spectrum and flavor mixing are highlighted：（1） the neutrino mass spectrum shows a hierarchical pattern and a normal ordering,e.g.,m1≈2.2meV,m2≈8.8 meV and m3≈52.7 meV;（2） only the first octant of θ23 is allowed,namely,41.8？ θ23 43.3？;（3） the Dirac C P-violating phase δ ≈-22？deviates significantly from the maximal value-90？.All these predictions are ready to be tested in ongoing and forthcoming neutrino oscillation experiments.Moreover,we demonstrate that the cosmological matter-antimatter asymmetry can be explained via resonant leptogenesis,including the individual lepton-flavor effects.In our scenario,leptonic C P violation at low-and high-energy scales is closely connected.
