Measuring θ12 despite an uncertain reactor neutrino spectrum

The recently discovered 5–7 MeV excess in the reactor neutrino spectral structure, corresponding to a prompt energy of 4–6 MeV, highlights that the uncertainty in the reactor neutrino spectrum is far greater than some theoretical estimates. Medium baseline (about 50 km) reactor neutrino experiments...
