Description

The Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment is designed to measure short baseline oscillation of electron antineutrinos coming from six 2.9 GWth nuclear reactors. In 2012, it announced the world’s first measurement of a non-zero value for the neutrino mixing angle θ13. Since then, an unprecedented sample of nearly 4 million reactor antineutrino candidates has been acquired resulting in the most precise measurement of θ13 up to date. The experiment also searched for light sterile neutrinos together with the MINOS+ experiment, setting world-leading limits on sterile neutrino mixing. In addition, Daya Bay provides precise measurements of total and isotopic reactor antineutrino flux and spectrum. The latest Daya Bay results and prospects will be presented in this talk.
