Description
Reactors are powerful sources of antineutrinos in the energy range of a few MeV,
producing about 2*10^20 antineutrinos per second per 1 GW of the thermal power. A lot of interesting studies at the forefront of modern physics can be carried out
with a detector placed in a vicinity of the reactor core. These studies include searches for the physics beyond the Standard model like sterile neutrinos, large extra dimensions, neutrino magnetic moment and millicharge. The talk will review new results in this area as well as coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering, reactor monitoring using its antineutrino flux and the high energy tail of the neutrino spectrum.
