The disappearance of reactor antineutrinos in the Double Chooz experiment is used to investigate the possibility of neutrino-antineutrino oscillations arising due to the breakdown of Lorentz invariance. We find no evidence for this…
We present the Bayesian method for evaluating the evidence for a non-zero value of the leptonic mixing angle theta_13 and CP-violation in neutrino oscillation experiments. This is an application of the well-established method of Bayesian…

It is shown that, if the "new neutrino" implied by the Reactor Neutrino Anomaly exists and is in fact characterized by the suggested relatively high mass squared difference and reasonably large mixing angle, it should clearly reveal itself…
Now that theta13 is known to be large, a medium baseline reactor experiment can observe the fine structure of the electron antineutrino survival probability curve, approximately periodic oscillations in L/E with wavelength 4pi/Delta M^2_31.…
The recent observation of the smallest neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ in the Daya Bay and RENO experiments motivates us to examine whether $\theta_{13} \simeq 9^\circ$ at the electroweak scale can be generated from $\theta_{13} =…

There is an observed deficit of about 6\% in the expected rate of anti-neutrino interactions when averaging over many different reactor experiments. While the significance of the deficit is low (98.6 \% CL), there is speculation that a…
