KamLAND has measured the flux of nu;(e)'s from distant nuclear reactors. We find fewer nu;(e) events than expected standard assumptions about propagation at 99.95% C.L. In a 162 ton.yr exposure ratio observed inverse beta-decay to number without disappearance is 0.611+/-0.085(stat)+/-0.041(syst) for energies >3.4 MeV. context two-flavor neutrino oscillations with CPT invariance, all solutions solar problem except "large mixing angle" region are excluded.
The Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment has measured a nonzero value for the neutrino mixing angle ${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{13}$ with significance of 5.2 standard deviations. Antineutrinos from six 2.9 $\mathrm{G}{\mathrm{W}}_{\mathrm{th}}$ reactors were detected in antineutrino detectors deployed two near (flux-weighted baseline 470 m and 576 m) one far (1648 underground experimental halls.

We present results of a study neutrino oscillation based on 766 ton-year exposure KamLAND to reactor anti-neutrinos. observe 258 \nuebar\ candidate events with energies above 3.4 MeV compared 365.2 expected in the absence oscillation. Accounting for 17.8 background events, statistical significance \nuebar disappearance is 99.998%. The observed energy spectrum disagrees spectral shape at 99.6% and prefers distortion from effects. A two-neutrino analysis data gives \DeltaMSq =...

Recent measurements of the positron energy spectrum obtained from inverse beta decay interactions reactor electron antineutrinos show an excess in 4 to 6 MeV region relative current predictions. First-principles calculations fission and processes within a typical pressurized water core identify prominent daughter isotopes as possible origin for this excess. These also predict percent-level substructures antineutrino due Coulomb effects decay. Precise measurement these can elucidate nuclear...
We present the results of a search for extraterrestrial electron antineutrinos ('s) in energy range using KamLAND detector. In an exposure 4.53 kton-year, we identify 25 candidate events. All events can be attributed to background, most importantly neutral current atmospheric neutrino interactions, setting upper limit on probability 8B solar νe's converting into 's at 5.3 × 10−5 (90% CL), if assume undistorted shape. This corresponds flux 93 cm−2 s−1 or event rate 1.6 (kton − year)−1 above...
Searches for a light sterile neutrino have been performed independently by the MINOS and Daya Bay experiments using muon (anti)neutrino electron antineutrino disappearance channels, respectively. In this Letter, results from both are combined with those Bugey-3 reactor experiment to constrain oscillations into neutrinos. The three sensitive complementary regions of parameter space, enabling analysis probe allowed Liquid Scintillator Neutrino Detector (LSND) MiniBooNE in minimally extended...

Determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy using a reactor experiment at $\sim$60 km is analyzed. Such measurement challenging due to finite detector resolution, absolute energy scale calibration, as well degeneracies caused by current experimental uncertainty $|\Delta m^2_{32}|$. The standard $\chi^2$ method compared with proposed Fourier transformation method. In addition, we show that for such succeed, one must understand non-linearity level few tenths percent.
