Description

Reactor anti-neutrinos have contributed important insights into neutrino properties. Precision measurements led, however, also to certain discrepancies between simulated neutrino spectra an measurements. The talk will cover aspects of the so-called bump and the flux anomaly, possible explanations and prospects for experimental tests. The talk will in addition cover the potential of certain new reactor experiments.
