【 摘 要 】

The possibility of the BEST experiment on electron neutrino disappearance with intense artificial sources of electron neutrino51Cr is considered. BEST has the great potential to search for transitions of active neutrinos to sterile states with Δm2∼1 eV2and to set the limits on short baseline electron neutrino disappearance oscillation parameters. The possibility of the further constraints the oscillation parameters region with using65Zn source is discussed.
