Standard parameterization for the CKM Matrix #
This file defines the standard parameterization of CKM matrices in terms of
four real numbers θ₁₂
, θ₁₃
, θ₂₃
and δ₁₃
.
We will show that every CKM matrix can be written within this standard parameterization
in the file FlavorPhysics.CKMMatrix.StandardParameters
.
The standard parameterization forms a unitary matrix.
A CKM Matrix from four reals θ₁₂
, θ₁₃
, θ₂₃
, and δ₁₃
. This is the standard
parameterization of CKM matrices.

The top-row of the standard parameterization is the cross product of the conjugate of the up and charm rows.
A CKM matrix which has rows equal to that of a standard parameterisation is equal to that standard parameterisation.
Two standard parameterisations of CKM matrices are the same matrix if they have the same angles and the exponential of their faces is equal.
