We explore the sensitivity of an experiment at the Daya Bay site, with a point radioactive source and a few meter baseline, to neutrino oscillations involving one or more eV mass sterile neutrinos. We find that within a year, the entire 3+2…
This publication provides a coherent treatment for the reactor neutrino flux uncertainties suppression, specially focussed on the latest $\theta_{13}$ measurement. The treatment starts with single detector in single reactor site, most…
Taking into account recent theoretical and experimental inputs on reactor fluxes we reconsider the determination of the weak mixing angle from low energy experiments. We perform a global analysis to all available neutrino-electron…
The oscillation results published by the Double Chooz collaboration in 2011 and 2012 rely on background models substantiated by reactor-on data. In this analysis, we present a background-model-independent measurement of the mixing angle…
The measurement of the last undetermined neutrino mixing angle \theta_{13} is the main goal of the future experimental research on neutrino oscillations. At present, \theta_{13} is only known to be much smaller than the two other mixing…
The recent experimental determinations of a large theta_13 angle have opened the way to a determination of the mass hierarchy and of the CP-violating phase. Experiments based on horn produced (anti-)neutrino conventional beams are presently…
In 2011 and 2012, three reactor neutrino experiments, Double Chooz, Daya Bay and RENO showed positive signals of reactor neutrino disappearance and measured a mixing parameter sin^2(2th13) at average baselines 1.05, 1.65 and 1.44km,…

We analyze in detail the physics potential of an experiment like the one recently proposed by the vIOLETA collaboration: a kilogram-scale Skipper CCD detector deployed 12 meters away from a commercial nuclear reactor core. This experiment…
Since the first indication in 2011 of a non-vanishing value of $\theta_{13}$ using reactor neutrinos by Double Chooz, this collaboration has developed new analyses leading to an increased precision on $\theta_{13}$ and different…
The DANSS experiment collected 5.5 million Inverse Beta Decay (IBD) events during 5 years of operation. Data were collected at 3 distances (10.9~m, 11.9~m, and 12.9~m) from the center of the core of the industrial $3.1~GW$ reactor. The IBD…
