Until recently, measurements of theta_13, which describes the nu_e component in the nu_3 mass eigenstate, gave only upper limits, leaving open the possibility that it is zero and eliminating a source of CP violation in the neutrino sector.…

A very long baseline experiment, with $L/E$ of $1.6 \times 10^4$ m/MeV, has been proposed as the ideal means to measure $\theta_{13}$, including its sign, for neutrino energies less than 50 MeV. Higher energies require consideration of the…

We propose that reactor experiments could be used to constrain the environment dependence of neutrino mass and mixing parameters, which could be induced due to an acceleron coupling to matter fields. There are several short-baseline reactor…
