abstract

We report a reanalysis of the reactor antineutrino energy spectra based on the new relative measurements of the ratio $R=\!^{e}S_5/^{e}S_9$ between cumulative $\beta$ spectra from $^{235}$U and $^{239}$Pu, performed at a research reactor in National Research Centre Kurchatov Institute (KI). A discrepancy with the $\beta$ spectra measured at Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) was observed, indicating a steady excess of the ILL ratio by the factor of $1.054\pm0.002$. We find a value of the ratio between inverse beta decay cross section per fission for $^{235}$U and $^{239}$Pu: $(^5\sigma_f/^9\sigma_f)_{KI} = 1.45 \pm 0.03$, and then we reevaluate the converted antineutrino spectra for $^{235}$U and $^{238}$U. We conclude that the new predictions are consistent with the results of Daya Bay and STEREO experiments.

    An analytic effective theory of the sterile-active MSW resonance in the (3+1) model reveals that only three channels, P(νe→νe), P(ν̄e→ν̄e), and P(ν̄μ→ν̄τ), carry unsuppressed on-peak resonance effects.

    The RED-100 experiment sets the first constraints on reactor antineutrino coherent scattering off xenon nuclei, with 90% C.L. upper limits 60 to 90 times the Standard Model expectation.
