Abstract

In the paradigm of three generations, neutrino mixing is described by three angles and a -violating phase. With the recent observation of electron antineutrino disappearance at baselines of 1 to 2 km from groups of reactors, the smallest neutrino mixing angle, , has been unambiguously determined. The rather large value of enables the pursuit of violation and mass hierarchy in the neutrino sector. This review summarizes the progress of measurements of and highlights future prospects.
