The neutrino mixing angle θ13 is the gateway to study CP violation and determines the trend of future neutrino experiments. The Daya Bay Reactor Antineutrino Experiment is designed to measure θ13 with a sensitivity of sin^2( 2θ13) < 0.01 at 90% C.L, utilizing multiple identical detectors placed underground at different baselines to minimize systematic errors and suppress cosmogenic...

In this talk we present an update on the results of theDouble Chooz detector. This experiment searches for themixing angle, $\theta_{13}$, in the three-neutrino mixing matrix
via the disappearance of $\bar \nu_e$ produced by the dual 4.27 GWth Chooz B Reactors. We will show an update oscillation fit results using both the rate and the shape of the anti-neutrino energy spectrum. In the...

Reactor Experiment for Neutrino Oscillation (RENO) is located in Hanbit nuclear power plant (16.5 GWth) site in S. Korea and has been successfully taking electron anti-neutrino data using two identical liquid scintillator detectors, near (294 m) and far (1.4 km), since August 2011. The smallest neutrino mixing angle, theta_13, was precisely measured (4.9 sigma) in 2012 using neutrino...

The reactor neutrino anomaly [1] refers to a greater than 3 deficit between the number of neutrinos detected relative to the number that are predicted in short baseline reactor neutrino oscillation experiments. The prediction for the expected number of detected neutrinos has evolved upward over time, largely as a consequence of a predicted increased in the neutrino flux and an increased ...

The status and prospects for two future reactor neutrino experiments, JUNO and RENO-50,
will be presented. Both experiments propose to use
liquid scintillator detectors with an order of magnitude more mass and a factor of five
more photoelectrons than extant detectors in order to resolve the neutrino mass hierarchy.
The capability to resolve the hierarchy and make precision measurements...
