This is the first measurement obtained with the completed Daya Bay detector configuration consisting of eight modular antineutrino detectors, providing a total target mass of 160 tonnes. Four detectors located around 300 to 500 m from the reactors measure the initial νe rate from the reactors, while four detectors at around 1.6 km from the reactors observe the subsequent disappearance. The analysis found sin2(2θ13) = 0.084±0.005 from the amplitude of anti-νe disappearance, while the energy dependence of this disappearance provided a measurement of oscillation frequency expressed in terms of the effective mass-squared difference |Δm2

ee| = (2.42±0.11) × 10–3 eV2 This is actually related to the two almost-equal neutrino mass-squared differences |Δm2

32| and |Δm231| = |Δm2

32 + Δm221|.

If the mass hierarchy is normal, then |Δm2

32| = (2.37±0.11) × 10–3 eV2, while if it is inverted, |Δm2

32| = (2.47±0.11) × 10–3 eV2.
