The TRIUMF Weak Interaction Symmetry Test (TWIST) experiment was designed to test the standard model at high precision in the purely leptonic decay of polarized muons. A general four-fermion interaction model is used to describe the muon decay. TWIST measures three of the four muon decay parameters of this model, $rho$, $delta$ and $P_{mu}^{pi} xi$, from the shape of the momentum-angle spectrum. The results of this model independent approach are compared to the standard model predictions and used to constrain new physics. Our collaboration has finalized the blind analysis of the final experimental data taken in 2006 and 2007. This analysis mostly reached our goal of a precision of an order of magnitude improvement over the pre-TWIST measurements.

This paper presents the results of oscillation analysis in K2K experiment. The results show indications of neutrino oscillation and give a new constraint on the oscillation parameters. The difference of neutrino masses squared $Delta m^2$ lies betwee n 1.5 and 3.9$times10^{-3} {rm eV}^2$ at $sin^2 2theta=1$ with the confidence level of 90%. In addition to these results, a brief overview of future long-baseline neutrino experiment in Japan, JHF-$ u$ experiment, is also given in this paper.

It is expected that a radio signal in the microwave range is produced in the atmosphere due to molecular bremsstrahlung initiated by extensive air showers. The CROME (Cosmic-Ray Observation via Microwave Emission) experiment was built to search for t his microwave signal. Radiation from the atmosphere is monitored in the extended C band (3.4--4.2 GHz) in coincidence with showers detected by the KASCADE-Grande experiment. The detector setup consists of several parabolic antennas and fast read-out electronics. The sensitivity of the detector has been measured with different methods. First results after half a year of data taking are presented.

DANSS is a one cubic meter highly segmented plastic scintillator detector. Its 2500 one meter long scintillator strips have a Gd-loaded reflective cover. The DANSS detector is placed under an industrial 3.1GW reactor of the Kalinin Nuclear Power plan t 350km NW from Moscow. The distance to the core ia varied on-line from 10.7m to 12.7m. Recent results on searches for a sterile neutrino are presented as well as measurements of the antineutrino spectrum dependence on the fuel composition. All results are preliminary. PACS: 14.60.Pq, 14.60.St

We present new results of the DANSS experiment on the searches for sterile neutrinos. They are based on 2.1 million of inverse beta decay events collected at 10.7, 11.7 and 12.7 meters from the reactor core of the 3.1 GW Kalinin Nuclear Power Plant i n Russia. This data sample is 2.5 times larger than the data sample in the previous DANSS publication. The search for the sterile neutrinos is performed using the ratio of $bar u_e$ spectra at two distances. This method is very robust against systematic uncertainties in the $bar u_e$ spectrum and the detector efficiency. We do not see any statistically significant sign for the $bar u_e$ oscillations. This allows us to exclude further a large and interesting part of the sterile neutrino parameter space. All results are preliminary.

The OPERA experiment aims at the direct confirmation of the leading oscillation mechanism in the atmospheric sector looking for the appearance of $ u_{tau}$ in an almost pure $ u_{mu}$ beam (the CERN CNGS beam). In five years of physics run the exper iment collected $17.97 times 10^{19}$ p.o.t. The detection of $tau$s produced in $ u_{tau}$ CC interactions and of their decays is accomplished exploiting the high spatial resolution of nuclear emulsions. Furthermore OPERA has good capabilities in detecting electron neutrino interactions, setting limits on the $ u_{mu} rightarrow u_{e}$ oscillation channel. In this talk the status of the analysis will be presented together with updated results on both oscillation channels.
