SNO+ is a multi-purpose experiment located at SNOLAB in Canada, with the main goal to search for neutrinoless double beta decay but measuring also neutrinos from several sources. In an earlier phase, SNO+ has made the first ever observation of reactor antineutrinos in a pure water Cherenkov detector. Presently, the water has been replaced by liquid scintillator, making SNO+ sensitive to...
The latest results of the DoubleChooz experiment in the context of applied antineutrino detection will be summarised in this talk. DoubleChooz experimental set-up, based at the EDF Chooz nuclear reactor (France), offers full reactor power modulation data. This enables DoubleChooz to achieve today’s world precision on the reactor flux measurement using reactor-on data and a precise spectral...
DANSS is a highly segmented solid-state scintillation spectrometer that detects up to 5000 reactor antineutrinos at a distance of 10-13 m from the industrial nuclear reactor (4 units, 3.1 GW) of the Kalinin NPP. Taking into account the low background (only 2%), this makes it possible to search for oscillations into sterile neutrinos in the ∆m2 ⊂ ( 0,02−5,0) eV2 region. Results will be...
We report the status of Reactor Experiment for Neutrino and Exotics (RENE),
which primarily aims to search for the sterile neutrino oscillation at $\Delta m_{41}^2 \sim 2 eV^2$.
The joint study of RENO and NEOS experiments showed a hint for the sterile neutrinos
at $\Delta m_{41}^2 \sim 2.4 eV^2$ and $\sim 1.7 eV^2$, which overlap with the allowed region by the Reactor Anti-neutrino...
The first observations of coherent elastic neutrino nuclear scattering (CEvNS) on multiple nuclei were recently made by the COHERENT experiment at the Spallation Neutron Source at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. This basic interaction now lays the foundation for a new era in developing compact neutrino detectors as well as a new probe of physics topics including electromagnetic properties,...
The CONUS reactor antineutrino experiment studies coherent elastic neutrino nucleus scattering (CEνNS) on germanium nuclei. For several years, the experiment was collecting data at about 17 m distance from the 3.9 GWth reactor core of the nuclear power plant in Brokdorf, Germany. Very low energy thresholds of about 210 eV were achieved in four 1 kg point contact germanium detectors equipped...
The recent detection of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEνNS) enables neutrino investigations of new physics with small-size detectors. However, CEνNS generates signals at the few- or sub-keV levels, requiring very sensitive detector technologies. High-yield neutrino sources, including power reactors, provide the fluxes required for definitive explorations of the...
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a medium-baseline reactor neutrino experiment under construction in China. It consists of a 20 kt liquid scintillator detector designed for neutrino physics. The main objective of the experiment is to determine the neutrino mass ordering by measuring the energy spectrum of reactor antineutrinos from eight neighboring cores. Also, JUNO...
