“…Several experimental hints point towards the existence of sterile neutrinos, which have been extensively investigated in many experiments. The possible observation of short baseline oscillations in some of these experiments [266][267][268][269][270][271][272][273] together with the non-observation of neutrino oscillations in others [23,[274][275][276][277][278][279][280][281][282][283] lead to large tensions in the global 3+1 picture [284][285][286][287][288]. Even though there is some theoretical overlap, these results would point towards new mass splittings at the ∼ 1 eV 2 scale.…”

“…The Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment started data taking on December 24, 2011. With millions of ν e interactions detected in eight identically designed ADs in three underground EHs, many physics results have been produced, including the current world-leading measurements of the neutrino mixing angle θ 13 and the squared masssplitting |∆m 2 32 | [16], precise measurements of the reactor ν e flux and spectrum [17,18,19], and stringent limits on the existence of light sterile neutrinos [20,21]. Three nested cylindrical volumes in each AD are separated by concentric acrylic vessels (IAV, OAV), as shown in Fig.…”

KM3NeT/ORCA is a next-generation neutrino telescope optimised for atmospheric neutrino oscillations studies. In this paper, the sensitivity of ORCA to the presence of a light sterile neutrino in a 3+1 model is presented. After three years of data taking, ORCA will be able to probe the active-sterile mixing angles θ14, θ24, θ34 and the effective angle θμe, over a broad range of mass squared difference $$ \Delta {m}_{41}^2 $$ ∆ m 41 2 ∼ [10−5, 10] eV2, allowing to test the eV-mass sterile neutrino hypothesis as the origin of short baseline anomalies, as well as probing the hypothesis of a very light sterile neutrino, not yet constrained by cosmology. ORCA will be able to explore a relevant fraction of the parameter space not yet reached by present measurements.
