abstract
The CKM matrix describing quark mixing with three generations can be parameterized by three mixing angles and one CP violating phase. In most of the parameterizations, the CP violating phase chosen is not a directly measurable quantity and is parametrization dependent. In this work, we propose to use experimentally measurable CP violating quantities, $\alpha$, $\beta$ or $\gamma$ in the unitarity triangle as the phase in the CKM matrix, and construct explicit $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$ parameterizations. Approximate Wolfenstein-like expressions are also suggested.

Under the approximations U13^e = 0 and U23^e = 0, the Fritzsch-Xing CP phase equals the sum of the neutrino-intrinsic phase and the relative phase between the first two generations.
