Abstract
The values of sin2α and sin2β, where α and β are angles of the unitarity triangle, will be readily measured in a B factory (and maybe also in hadron colliders). We study the standard model constraints in the sin2αsin2β plane. We use the results from recent analyses of fB and τb|Vcb|2 which take into account heavy-quark symmetry considerations. We find sin2β0.15 and most likely sin2β0.6, and emphasize the strong correlations between sin2α and sin2β. Various schemes for quark mass matrices allow much smaller areas in the sin2αsin2β plane. We study the schemes of Fritzsch, of Dimopoulos, Hall, and Raby, and of Giudice, as well as the "symmetric Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa" idea, and show how CP asymmetries in B decays will crucially test each of these schemes.
