We introduce and study a 2-parameter family of unitarily invariant
probability measures on the space of infinite Hermitian matrices. We show that
the decomposition of a measure from this family on ergodic components is
described by a determinantal point process on the real line. The correlation
kernel for this process is explicitly computed.
At certain values of parameters the kernel turns into the well-known sine
kernel which describes the local correlation in Circular and Gaussian Unitary
Ensembles. Thus, the random point configuration of the sine process is
interpreted as the random set of ``eigenvalues'' of infinite Hermitian matrices
distributed according to the corresponding measure.
