Measurement of θ13

Research output: Contribution to journal › Review article › peer-review

Abstract

In the paradigm of three generations, neutrino mixing is described by three angles and a CP-violating phase. With the recent observation of electron antineutrino disappearance at baselines of 1 to 2 km from groups of reactors, the smallest neutrino mixing angle, θ13, has been unambiguously determined. The rather large value of θ13 enables the pursuit of CP violation and mass hierarchy in the neutrino sector. This review summarizes the progress of measurements of θ13 and highlights future prospects.
