Search for sterile neutrinos in gallium experiments with artificial neutrino sources

The possibility of the BEST experiment on electron neutrino disappearance with intense artificial sources of electron neutrino 51 Cr is considered. BEST has the great potential to search for transitions of active neutrinos to sterile states with Δ m 2 ∼ 1 eV 2 and to set the limits on short baseline...

Description
Summary:The possibility of the BEST experiment on electron neutrino disappearance with intense artificial sources of electron neutrino 51 Cr is considered. BEST has the great potential to search for transitions of active neutrinos to sterile states with Δ m 2 ∼ 1 eV 2 and to set the limits on short baseline electron neutrino disappearance oscillation parameters. The possibility of the further constraints the oscillation parameters region with using 65 Zn source is discussed.
