The Baikal Neutrino Project: Status and Perspectives

  • Conference paper
Beyond the Desert 2003

Abstract

We review the present status of the Baikal Neutrino Project and present results of a search for upward going atmospheric neutrinos, WIMPs and magnetic monopoles obtained with the detector NT-200. Also, the results of a search for very high energy neutrinos are presented. An upper limit on the v e+v μ+v T neutrino diffuse flux of E 2 · F(E) < 1.3 · 10 -6 cm-2 s-1 sr-1 GeV within a neutrino energy range 104 ÷ 107 GeV is obtained, assuming an E -2 behaviour of the neutrino spectrum and flavor ratio v e+v μ+v T = 1: 1: 1- We describe the moderate upgrade of NT-200 planned for the next years and discuss a possible detector on the Gigaton scale.
