Latest oscillation results from Daya Bay

Abstract

The Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment is the first experiment that measured a non-zero value for the neutrino mixing angle θ13 in 2012. Antineutrinos from six 2.9 GWth reactors are detected in eight identically designed detectors deployed in two near and one far underground experimental halls. The near-far arrangement in km-scale baselines of anti-neutrino detectors allows for a high-precision test of the three-neutrino oscillation framework. Daya Bay's collection of physics data already ended on December 12, 2020. This proceeding shows the measurement results of θ13 and the mass-squared splitting m232, based on the gadolinium-capture tagged sample in the complete data set with 3158 days of operation. The latest results on the hydrogen-capture-based oscillation analysis and search for light sterile neutrino are also summarized.
