Abstract
We have obtained a new limit on the electron neutrino effective charge radius from a new evaluation of the weak mixing angle by a combined fit of all electron-(anti)neutrino electron elastic scattering measurements. Weak mixing angle is found to be sin2θW=0.259±0.025 in the low energy regime below 100 MeV. The electron neutrino charge radius squared is bounded to be in the range −0.13×10−32cm2<〈rνe2〉<3.32×10−32cm2 at 90% C.L. Both results improve previously published analyses. We also discuss perspectives of future experiments to improve these constraints.
