... projected sensitivity of the SOX experiment at the 95% C.L in the framework of a single additional sterile neutrino (3+1 scenario), is shown on Figure 3. A 1.5 year of data taking was considered and the bandwidth is related to a the maximum 150 kCi and minimum 100 kCi value of the source activity. The assumed precision on the calorimetric measurement was 1.5%, that is a very conservative number in comparison with the last calibration results obtained by the INFN-TUM calorimeter, while for the knowledge of the beta spectrum shape a value of 3% was considered. In the plot the contribution of the rate analysis and the shape analysis on the final sensitivity are shown and the evidenced region can be compared with the best fit region as resulted from the combined analysis of the antineutrino disappearance channel anomalies [13]. A wide area of the best fit region at 99% C.L. is covered by the SOX sensitivity and thanks to the rate analysis the region is further ...

We show how 21 cm cosmology can test relic neutrino radiative decays into sterile neutrinos. Using recent EDGES results, we derive constraints on the lifetime of the decaying neutrinos. If the EDGES anomaly will be confirmed, then there are two solutions, one for much longer and one for much shorter lifetimes than the age of the universe, showing h...

We report a search result for a light sterile neutrino oscillation with roughly 2200 live days of data in the RENO experiment. The search is performed by electron antineutrino (ν¯e) disappearance taking place between six 2.8 GWth reactors and two identical detectors located at 294 m (near) and 1383 m (far) from the center of the reactor array. A sp...
