“…A reactor antineutrino experiment with a large LS detector and a baseline of around 50 km, such as JUNO (75) With a nonzero value of θ 13 , the last term of Equation 5 indicates that matter effects of neutrino oscillation are also sensitive to the mass hierarchy. The sensitivity to the matter effects requires a low value of | m 2 32 |/E and long distances L. The T2K and upcoming NOνA (76) experiments will have a chance to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy.…”

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, θ 13 , has been unambiguously determined. The rather large value of θ 13 enables the pursuit of CP violation and mass hierarchy in the neutrino sector. This review summarizes the progress of measurements of θ 13 and highlights future prospects. 329

“…Recent studies indicate that a dedicated medium-baseline reactor antineutrino experiment with sufficient statistics and unprecedented detector performance provides an opportunity to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy and probe with high precision the other neutrino parameters (see, e.g., Ref. [6] and references therein). In the near future, potential projects along this direction include the JUNO [7] and RENO-50 [8] experiments.…”

Nonstandard interaction effects on neutrino parameters at medium-baseline reactor antineutrino experiments

Precision measurements of leptonic mixing parameters and the determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy are the primary goals of the forthcoming medium-baseline reactor antineutrino experiments, such as JUNO and RENO-50. In this work, we investigate the impact of nonstandard neutrino interactions (NSIs) on the measurements of {sin 2 θ 12 , ∆m 2 21 } and {sin 2 θ 13 , ∆m 2 31 }, and on the sensitivity to the neutrino mass hierarchy, at the medium-baseline reactor experiments by assuming a typical experimental setup. It turns out that the true mixing parameter sin 2 θ 12 can be excluded at a more than 3σ level if the NSI parameter ε eµ or ε eτ is as large as 2% in the most optimistic case. However, the discovery reach of NSI effects has been found to be small, and depends crucially on the CP-violating phases. Finally, we show that NSI effects could enhance or reduce the discrimination power of the JUNO and RENO-50 experiments between the normal and inverted neutrino mass hierarchies. * Electronic address: tohlsson@kth.se † Electronic address: he.zhang@mpi-hd.mpg.de ‡ Electronic address: shunzhou@kth.se
