Abstract: We prove that any contact metric (kappa,mu)-space (M,xi,phi,eta,g) admits a canonical paracontact metric structure which is compatible with the contact form eta. We study such canonical paracontact structure, proving that it verifies a nullity condition and induces on the underlying contact manifold (M,eta) a sequence of compatible contact and paracontact metric structures verifying nullity conditions. The behavior of that sequence, related to the Boeckx invariant IM and to the bi-Legendrian structure of (M,xi,phi,eta,g), is then studied. Finally we are able to define a canonical Sasakian structure on any contact metric (kappa,mu)-space whose Boexkx invariant satisfies |IM|>1.
