Abstract

The Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment has measured a non-zero value of the neutrino mixing angle θ13\theta_{13} with a significance of 7.7 standard deviations by a rate-only a nalysis. The distortion of neutrino energy spectrum carries additional oscillation information and can improve the sensitivity of θ13\theta_{13} as well as measure neutrino mass splitting Δm2\Delta m^{2} . A rate plus shape analysis is performed and the results have been released in August at NuFact 2013. Detector energy non-linearity response study is crucial for the rate plus shape analysis. In this contribution, We present A brief description of energy non-linearity study at Daya Bay.
