The neutrino mixing angle theta(13) is at the focus of current neutrino research. From a global analysis of the available oscillation data in a 3-neutrino framework, we previously reported [Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 141801 (2008)] hints in…
In the past decades, short baseline neutrino oscillation studies around experimental or commercial reactor cores have revealed two anomalies. The first one is linked to the absolute flux and the second one to the spectral shape. The first…

The Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment, which pioneered the measurement of a non-zero value for the neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ in 2012, operated for nearly nine years, from Nov.~24, 2011, to Dec.~12, 2020. Antineutrinos produced…
Nuclear reactors are one of the most intense, pure, controllable, cost-effective, and well-understood sources of neutrinos. Reactors have played a major role in the study of neutrino oscillations, a phenomenon that indicates that neutrinos…
We explore how well reactor antineutrino experiments can constrain or measure the loss of quantum coherence in neutrino oscillations. We assume that decoherence effects are encoded in the size of the neutrino wave-packet, $\sigma$. We find…
