Baikal-GVD: status and prospects
Baikal-GVD is a next generation, kilometer-scale neutrino telescope under
construction in Lake Baikal. It is designed to detect astrophysical neutrino
fluxes at energies from a few TeV up to 100 PeV. GVD is formed by multi-megaton
subarrays (clusters). The array construction started in 2015 by deployment of a
reduced-size demonstration cluster named "Dubna". The first cluster in its
baseline configuration was deployed in 2016, the second in 2017 and the third
in 2018. The full scale GVD will be an array of ~10000 light sensors with an
instrumented volume of about 2 cubic km. The first phase (GVD-1) is planned to
be completed by 2020-2021. It will comprise 8 clusters with 2304 light sensors
in total. We describe the design of Baikal-GVD and present selected results
obtained in 2015-2017.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figures. Conference proceedings for QUARKS201
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.Comment: 25 pages, 12 figures. To appear in the Procrrdings of International
