What if neutrino masses unlock a hidden symmetry between light and heavy partners?

The seesaw mechanism explains tiny neutrino masses by pairing them with superheavy partners, but the equations allow multiple solutions. This work finds a special family-organized solution that connects light neutrino behavior (flavor oscillations) directly to heavy neutrino decay properties through CP violation. The prediction is testable: measure oscillations in one place, predict heavy particle signatures elsewhere.
