Dirac CP phases in a 3 + 1 neutrino scenario with $$\mu -\tau $$ μ - τ symmetry

Abstract A sterile neutrino in the $$3+1$$ 3 + 1 scheme, where the sterile accounts for neutrino anomalies not explained solely by the weak active neutrinos, arises as a natural source for the breaking of the $$\mu -\tau $$ μ - τ symmetry suggested by oscillation neutrino data. We explore the predic...
