Diagonalization of Quark Mass Matrices and the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa Matrix
arXiv:hep-ph/9708216
Abstract
I discuss some general aspects of diagonalizing the quark mass matrices and list all possible parametrizations of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix (CKM) in terms of three rotation angles and a phase. I systematically study the relation between the rotations needed to diagonalize the Yukawa matrices and various parametrizations of the CKM.
