The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a long-baseline project that will study an accelerator-made neutrino beam produced at Fermilab. DUNE will consist of two detectors placed in the path of the neutrino beam, one near the source and one at the Stanford Underground Research Facility, at a distance of 1300km and protected by a 1500m rock overburden. Fundamental features of neutrino...
Nuclear reactors are intense antineutrino emitters and are therefore useful sources to study the fundamental properties of the neutrino. Antineutrino spectra and fluxes measured in past experiments at reactor sites have showed deviations from the models, confirmed by last generation experiments, whose origin remains unclear. The goal of my PhD thesis is to revisit the theoretical models to...
