Neutrino Oscillations/ Neutrino Beam Physics
Oral
We investigate neutrino oscillations with more than three flavors in the context of global oscillation data, including short and long-baseline accelerator, reactor, and radioactive source experiments, as well as atmospheric and solar neutrinos. We discuss the possible experimental hints for sterile neutrinos and quantify their tension with null results from other experiments. We also address...

Neutrino Oscillations/ Neutrino Beam Physics
Oral
An intriguing, nearly three-sigma indication of the electron antineutrino
disappearance at less than 100 m distance from the nuclear reactor core has recently
been revealed. The effect was named a reactor antineutrino anomaly (RAA). The
disappearance may be due to reactor neutrinos oscillating into another neutrino
type. We plan to test the RAA with a complementary technique: deploy a...

Borexino, a large volume liquid scintillator detector installed at Gran Sasso laboratory, demonstrated extraordinary sensitivity with respect to neutrino and antineutrino detection, reporting the best up to date results on solar neutrino fluxes below 1 MeV and performing geo-neutrino detection. Energy and position of 1 MeV event in Borexino are reconstructed with a precision of 5% and 14 cm...

Neutrino Oscillations/ Neutrino Beam Physics
Oral
Charged lepton flavor violation processes are ideal probes for new physics due to the suppression of Standard Model backgrounds. In particular, $\mu^+\rightarrow e^+\gamma$ decay and neutrinoless $\mu \rightarrow e$ conversion have been used extensively in the search for new physics by many experiments in the past. Currently, the MEG collaboration is searching for $\mu^+\rightarrow e^+\gamma$...
