We examine the potential of the future medium-baseline reactor neutrino oscillation (MBRO) experiments in studying neutrino wave-packet impact. In our study, we treat neutrinos as wave packets and use the corresponding neutrino flavor transition probabilities. The delocalization, separation and spreading of the wave packets lead to decoherence and dispersion effects, which modify the plane-wave neutrino oscillation pattern, by amounts that depend on the energy uncertainties in the initial neutrino wave packets. We find that MBRO experiments could be sensitive to the wave-packet impact, since the baseline is long enough and also the capability of observing small corrections to the neutrino oscillations due to excellent detector energy resolution. Besides studying the constraints on the decoherence parameter, we also examine the potential wave-packet impacts on the precision of measuring $theta_{12}$ and other oscillation parameters in the future medium-baseline reactor neutrino oscillation experiments. Moreover, we also probe the potential benefits of an additional detector for studying such exotic neutrino physics.
The experimental bound on lifetime of nu_3, the neutrino mass eigenstate with the smallest nu_e component, is much weaker than those of nu_1 and nu_2 by many orders of magnitude to which the astrophysical constraints apply. We argue that the future r
Medium-baseline reactor neutrino oscillation experiments (MBRO) have been proposed to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy (MH) and to make precise measurements of the neutrino oscillation parameters. With sufficient statistics, better than ~3%/sqrt
In the next 10 years medium baseline reactor neutrino experiments will attempt to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy and to precisely measure {theta}_12. Both of these determinations will be more reliable if data from identical detectors at distin
In the past decade, the precise measurement of the lastly known neutrino mixing angle $theta_{13}$ has enabled the resolution of neutrino mass hierarchy (MH) at medium-baseline reactor neutrino oscillation (MBRO) experiments. On the other hand, recen
We study non-standard interactions (NSIs) at reactor neutrino experiments, and in particular, the mimicking effects on theta_13. We present generic formulas for oscillation probabilities including NSIs from sources and detectors. Instructive mappings
