Abstract
Utilizing six powerful nuclear reactors as antineutrino sources, and eight identically designed underground detectors for a near-far relative measurement, the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment has achieved unprecedented precision in measuring the neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ and the neutrino effective mass squared difference |$\Delta m^2_{\mathrm{ee}}$|. With a growing dataset that constitutes the largest sample of reactor antineutrino interactions ever collected to date, and the improved systematic uncertainties such as the energy model and the antineutrino detection efficiency, Daya Bay is also able to perform a number of other measurements in neutrino physics, such as a high-statistics determination of the absolute reactor antineutrino flux and spectrum, as well as a search for sterile neutrino mixing, among others. In this talk, I will present the latest results from Daya Bay.
