Abstract

A non zero, surprisingly large value of the third mixing angle θ13 has been measured in reactor neutrino experiments. Currently the most precise measurement of sin213 has been performed by the Daya Bay experiment sin213=0.089± 0.010(\rm stat.)±0.005(\rm syst.) (7.7 σ significance of sin213 > 0),the RENO experiment has measured the value sin213 = 0.113 ± 0.013(\rm stat.) ± 0.019(\rm syst.) (4.9 σ significance) and the Double Chooz experiment sin213 = 0.109 ± 0.030(\rm stat.) ± 0.025(\rm syst.) (2.9 σ significance). These results are extremely important for future searches of violation of combined CP parity in lepton sector of the Standard model.
