DUNE experiment, allowing an unprecedented reach in neutrino oscillation
physics and providing a unique opportunity to effect a generational advance
in the fundamental measurements of neutrino induced fundamental interactions
at the near site. We shall review salient topics among these interactions.

Alexander Himmel (Fermilab)05/08/2016, 11:47Detector: R&D and PerformanceOral PresentationDUNE, the DEEP Underground Neutrino Experiment, will be a groundbreaking experiment for long-baseline neutrino oscillation studies, and for neutrino astrophysics and nucleon decay searches. Planning of DUNE continues to proceed rapidly. The DUNE Far Detector will consist of four 10-kiloton fiducial volume modular liquid argon time-projection chambers (LArTPC) placed deep underground at the...Go to contribution page

Leonidas Kalousis (Vrije Universiteit Brussel)05/08/2016, 12:17Detector: R&D and PerformanceOral PresentationThe SoLid experiment is currently one of the most compact and most finely segmented neutrino detectors. Deployed near a compact and intense neutrino sources, such as the Belgian high-power BR2 research reactor, it is an ideal detector to search for sterile neutrinos signatures. A novel approach to measuring reactor anti-neutrinos was developed based on an innovative sandwich of composite...Go to contribution page

Stephane Zsoldos05/08/2016, 12:32Neutrino PhysicsOral PresentationThe re-evaluation of the theoretical anti-neutrino flux emitted by nuclear reactors revealed a deficit of about 6% between the observed flux and the expected one. This so-called reactor anti-neutrino anomaly has a statistical significance of 2.7$\sigma$, and one possible explanation to this deficit could be the existence of a light sterile neutrino state into which reactor anti-neutrino...Go to contribution page

Marcos Dracos (IPHC/IN2P3-Strasbourg)05/08/2016, 12:52Neutrino PhysicsOral PresentationThe comparatively large value of the neutrino mixing angle θ13 measured in 2012 by neutrino reactor experiments has opened the possibility to observe for the first time CP violation in the leptonic sector. The measured value of θ13 also privileges the 2nd oscillation maximum for the discovery of CP violation instead of the usually used 1st oscillation maximum. The sensitivity at the 2nd...Go to contribution page
