The optical module for the NESTOR neutrino telescope
NESTOR is a deep-sea water Cherenkov neutrino detector now under construction for deployment in the Mediterranean off Greece. Its key component is an optical module employing a photomultiplier tube with a 15 in. hemispherical photocathode in a transparent glass pressure housing. Extensive tests have been made on the sensitivity, uniformity, time resolution, noise rates and mechanical properties of the module: several test deployments have been made at sea. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

KM3NeT. Conceptual Design Report for a Deep-Sea Research Infrastructure Incorporating a Very Large Volume Neutrino Telescope in the Mediterranean Sea
The scientific case for a neutrino telescope of a cubic kilometre scale is overwhelming. The infraâstructure it requires can easily be shared by a host of other, associated, sciences, making longâterm measurements in the area of oceanography, climaâtology, geophysics, geotechnics and marine bioâlogical sciences possible. This combination of neuâtrino telescope and multidisciplinary undersea obâservatory, KM3NeT, is the subject of this Design Report. It summarises goals for the design and the options for its technical implementation
KM3NeT: Technical design report.
KM3NeT is a deepâsea multidisciplinary observatory in the Mediterranean Sea that will provide innovative science
opportunities spanning Astroparticle Physics and Earth and Sea Science. This is possible through the synergy created by the use of a common infrastructure allowing for long term continuous operation of a neutrino telescope and marine
instrumentation. The present KM3NeT Design Study concludes with this Technical Design Report which develops the ideas put forward in the Conceptual Design Report published in April 2008
