Neutrino experiments: highlights of accelerator and reactor results

AbstractWe present a summary of recent accelerator and reactor results in the field of neutrino experiments. Having established neutrino oscillations in a variety of experimental configurations, it is remarkable that practically all the observations fit within a well defined paradigm, where the neutrino mixing matrix PMNS plays a central role. The experimental task is today to precisely measure the parameters of this matrix and to make precision tests of this paradigm. Various experimental results, in particular the θ13 measurement at reactor experiments, are shown which illustrate that the few percent precision level has been reached or will be soon reached. This opens up a new realm of sensitivity to subleading effects in the oscillation phenomena. Moreover, the study of νμ→νe appearance at accelerator experiments provides very preliminary indications related to the CP violation parameter δCP. The full exploration of CP violation in the lepton sector is the goal for the future studies, with a contribution from various experiments, currently running or planned for the next decade
