New results from the Baikal neutrino telescope NT200, based on the first 5 years of operation (1998–2003), are presented. We derive an all-flavor limit on the diffuse flux of astrophysical neutrinos between 20 TeV and 50 PeV, extract an enlarged sample of high energy muon neutrino events, and obtain limits on the flux of high energy atmospheric muons. In 2005, the upgraded telescope NT200+ will be commissioned: 3 additional distant strings with only 12 photo-multipliers each will rise the effective volume to 20 Mton at 10 PeV for this largest running neutrino telescope in the Northern hemisphere.

Abstract The high-energy muon neutrino events of the IceCube telescope, that are triggered as neutrino alerts in one of two probability ranks of astrophysical origin, “gold” and “bronze”, have been followed up by the Baikal-GVD in a fast quasi-online mode since September 2020. Search for correlations between alerts and GVD events reconstructed in two modes, muon-track and cascades (electromagnetic or hadronic showers), for the time windows ±1 h and ±12 h does not indicate statistically significant excess of the measured events over the expected number of background events. Upper limits on the neutrino fluence will be presented for each alert.

ANTARES is a neutrino telescope under the Mediterranean Sea, in a site 40 km off the French coast at a depth of 2475 m. It is an array of 12 lines equipped with 884 photomultipliers. The detection mechanism relies on the observation of the Cherenkov light emitted by charged leptons produced by neutrinos interacting in the water and ground surrounding the detector. First studies of the detector performances and preliminary results on reconstruction of atmospheric muons and neutrinos are presented, with the expected sensitivity for a diffuse flux of high energy neutrinos.

In this paper we describe the main results obtained by the MACRO experiment: final stringent upper limits on GUT magnetic monopoles and nuclearites, results on atmospheric neutrino oscillations, high energy muon neutrino astronomy, searches for WIMPs, search for low energy stellar gravitational collapse neutrinos, several studies with high energy downgoing muons and determination of the primary cosmic ray composition at knee energies.

The IceCube Neutrino Telescope, a huge Neutrino Telescope with 1 cubic km instrumented volume, starts construction in 2004. The project status and the expected sensitivity and performance for detecting high energy cosmic neutrinos are reported. Preliminary results based on AMANDA experience without taking into account IceCube's new digital technology indicate a sensitivity to a diffuse muon neutrino energy flux of 10-8 GeV/cm2 sr sec. Proposed models for GRB emission should be observable in less than one year. The capability of EHE neutrino detection is also briefly mentioned.

Baikal-GVD is a next generation, kilometer-scale neutrino telescope currently under construction in Lake Baikal. GVD is formed by multi-megaton subarrays (clusters) and is designed for the detection of astrophysical neutrino fluxes at energies from a few TeV up to 100 PeV. The design of Baikal-GVD allows one to search for astrophysical neutrinos with flux values measured by IceCube already at early phases of the array construction. We present here preliminary results of the search for high-energy neutrinos via the cascade mode obtained in 2015 and 2016.
