Title

Neutrino physics and astrophysics with the ANTARES neutrino telescope
Co-authors

Abstract

The ANTARES detector is currently the largest operating neutrino telescope in the Northern Hemisphere. The detector array (operating in its full configuration since 2008) consists of 12 detector lines holding a total of 885 Optical Modules. It is located in the Mediterranean Sea, near Toulon (France) at a depth of about 2500m. Its scientific target is the detection of ultra-high energy cosmic neutrinos through measurement of Cherenkov radiation from neutrino-induced charged leptons. Here, an overview of the results of various analyses will be given, in particular for the searches of point-like sources, of an excess of high energy events over the background due to the atmospheric neutrinos and the measurement of the atmospheric neutrino oscillations using a neutrino telescope.
