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 plant 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.
DANSS is a highly segmented 1~m${}^3$ plastic scintillator detector. Its 2500 one meter long scintillator strips have a Gd-loaded reflective cover. The DANSS detector is placed under an industrial 3.1~$mathrm{GW_{th}}$ reactor of the Kalinin Nuclear
Power Plant 350~km NW from Moscow. The distance to the core is varied on-line from 10.7~m to 12.7~m. The reactor building provides about 50~m water-equivalent shielding against the cosmic background. DANSS detects almost 5000 $widetilde u_e$ per day at the closest position with the cosmic background less than 3$%$. The inverse beta decay process is used to detect $widetilde u_e$. Sterile neutrinos are searched for assuming the $4 u$ model (3 active and 1 sterile $ u$). The exclusion area in the $Delta m_{14}^2,sin^22theta_{14}$ plane is obtained using a ratio of positron energy spectra collected at different distances. Therefore results do not depend on the shape and normalization of the reactor $widetilde u_e$ spectrum, as well as on the detector efficiency. Results are based on 966 thousand antineutrino events collected at 3 distances from the reactor core. The excluded area covers a wide range of the sterile neutrino parameters up to $sin^22theta_{14}<0.01$ in the most sensitive region.
We present new preliminary DANSS results based on 3.5 million Inverse Beta Decay (IBD) events collected at 3 distances (10.9 m, 11.9 m, and 12.9 m) from the detector center to the reactor core center. The detector position is changed typically 3 time
s a week. Therefore many systematic uncertainties are canceled out. A new analysis that uses information about relative IBD counting rates in addition to changes in positron energy spectra shapes is employed. The excluded area covers a very interesting range of the sterile neutrino parameters up to $sin^2 2theta_{ee} < 0.008$ in the most sensitive region. No statistically significant evidence for sterile neutrinos is observed. The significance of the best-fit point in the 4$ u$ case is 1.5$sigma$
The MINERvA collaboration is currently engaged in a broad program of neutrino-nucleus interaction measurements. Several recent measurements of interest to the accelerator-based oscillation community are presented. These include measurements of quasi-
elastic scattering, diffractive pion production, kaon production and comparisons of interaction cross sections across nuclei. A new measurement of the NuMI neutrino beam flux that incorporates both external hadro-production data and MINERvA detector data is also presented.
