Electron antineutrino appearance is measured by the T2K experiment in an accelerator-produced antineutrino beam, using additional neutrino beam operation to constrain parameters of the PMNS mixing matrix. T2K observes 15 candidate electron antineutrino events with a background expectation of 9.3 events. Including information from the kinematic distribution of observed events, the hypothesis of no electron antineutrino appearance is disfavored with a significance of 2.40{sigma} and no discrepancy between data and PMNS predictions is found. A complementary analysis that introduces an additional free parameter which allows non-PMNS values of electron neutrino and antineutrino appearance also finds no discrepancy between data and PMNS predictions.

The MiniBooNE experiment at Fermilab has updated its search for u_mu-bar -> u_e-bar oscillations with data collected through May 2011. This represents a statistics increase of 52% over the result published in 2010. The data favor LSND-like oscillat
ions over a background-only hypothesis at the 91.1% confidence level. While the new result remains equally consistent with LSND, the compatibility with the background-only hypothesis is improved. An excess of 38.6 +- 18.5 u_e-like events below 475 MeV is observed, consistent with the observation of such an excess in neutrino mode.
A recently developed Standard-Model Extension (SME) formalism for neutrino oscillations that includes Lorentz and CPT violation is used to analyze the sidereal time variation of the neutrino event excess measured by the Liquid Scintillator Neutrino D
etector (LSND) experiment. The LSND experiment, performed at Los Alamos National Laboratory, observed an excess, consistent with neutrino oscillations, of ${bar u}_e$ in a beam of ${bar u}_mu$. It is determined that the LSND oscillation signal is consistent with no sidereal variation. However, there are several combinations of SME coefficients that describe the LSND data; both with and without sidereal variations. The scale of Lorentz and CPT violation extracted from the LSND data is of order $10^{-19}$ GeV for the SME coefficients $a_L$ and $E times c_L$. This solution for Lorentz and CPT violating neutrino oscillations may be tested by other short baseline neutrino oscillation experiments, such as the MiniBooNE experiment.
The KARMEN experiment at the spallation neutron source ISIS used umub from mup--decay at rest in the search for neutrino oscillations umubnueb in the appearance mode, with p( ueb,e+)n as detection reaction of ueb. In total, 15 candidates fulfill a
ll conditions for the ueb signature, in agreement with the background expectation of 15.8+-0.5 events, yielding no indication for oscillations. A single event based likelihood analysis leads to upper limits on the oscillation parameters: sin^2(2theta)<1.7x10e-3 for Dm^2>100 eV^2 and Dm^2<0.055 eV^2 for sin^2(2theta)=1 at 90% confidence. Thus, KARMEN does not confirm the LSND experiment and restricts significantly its favored parameter region for umubnueb.
We report on $ u_e$ and $bar{ u}_e$ appearance in $ u_mu$ and $bar{ u}_mu$ beams using the full MINOS data sample. The comparison of these $ u_e$ and $bar{ u}_e$ appearance data at a 735 km baseline with $theta_{13}$ measurements by reactor experimen
ts probes $delta$, the $theta_{23}$ octant degeneracy, and the mass hierarchy. This analysis is the first use of this technique and includes the first accelerator long-baseline search for $bar{ u}_murightarrowbar{ u}_e$. Our data disfavor 31% (5%) of the three-parameter space defined by $delta$, the octant of the $theta_{23}$, and the mass hierarchy at the 68% (90%) C.L. We measure a value of 2sin$^2(2theta_{13})$sin$^2(theta_{23})$ that is consistent with reactor experiments.
The MiniBooNE and SciBooNE collaborations report the results of a joint search for short baseline disappearance of bar{{ u}_{mu}} at Fermilabs Booster Neutrino Beamline. The MiniBooNE Cherenkov detector and the SciBooNE tracking detector observe anti
neutrinos from the same beam, therefore the combined analysis of their datasets serves to partially constrain some of the flux and cross section uncertainties. Uncertainties in the { u}_{mu} background were constrained by neutrino flux and cross section measurements performed in both detectors. A likelihood ratio method was used to set a 90% confidence level upper limit on bar{{ u}_{mu}} disappearance that dramatically improves upon prior limits in the {Delta}m^2=0.1-100 eV^2 region.
