The Daya Bay experiment has determined the last unknown mixing angle $theta_{13}$. This thesis describes the layout of the experiment and the detector design. The analysis presented in the thesis covered the water attenuation, spent fuel neutrino and electron anti-neutrino spectrum. Other physics analysis and impact to future experiments are also discussed. / Ph. D.
