A prototype device for acoustic neutrino detection in Lake Baikal

In April 2006, a 4-channel acoustic antenna has been put in long-term operation on Lake Baikal. The detector was installed at a depth of about 100 m on the instrumentation string of Baikal Neutrino Telescope NT200+. This detector may be regarded as a prototype of a subunit for a future underwater acoustic neutrino telescope. We describe the design of acoustic detector and present first results obtained from data analysis.

The Lake Baikal neutrino experiment: selected results

We review the present status of the lake Baikal Neutrino Experiment and present selected physical results gained with the consequetive stages of the stepwise increasing detector: from NT-36 to NT-96. Results cover atmospheric muons, neutrino events, very high energy neutrinos, search for neutrino events from WIMP annihilation, search for magnetic monopoles and environmental studies. We also describe an air Cherenkov array developed for the study of angular resolution of NT-200.

Search for high energy neutrinos with the BAIKAL underwater detector NT-96

We present the results of a search for high energy neutrinos with the Baikal underwater Cherenkov detector NT-96. An upper limit to the flux of ν_e + ν_μ + \bar{ν_μ} of E^2F_ν(E)<1.4 10^{-5} cm^{-2} s^{-1} sr^{-1} GeV is obtained, assuming an E^{-2} behavior of the neutrino spectrum.
