“…However, DUMAND paved the way for later efforts by pioneering many of the detector technologies in use today and by inspiring the deployment of a smaller instrument in Lake Baikal [5]. A similar instrument, ANTARES, has been operating in the Mediterranean Sea for over a decade [6,7,8], leading the way for the ongoing construction of KM3NeT [9] off the coasts of Sicily (ARCA) and France (ORCA) and GVD [10] in Lake Baikal.…”

Weakly interacting neutrinos are ideal astronomical messengers because they travel through space without deflection by magnetic fields and, essentially, without absorption. Their weak interaction also makes them notoriously difficult to detect, with observation of high-energy neutrinos from distant sources requiring kilometer-scale detectors. The IceCube project transformed a cubic kilometer of natural Antarctic ice at the geographic South Pole into a Cherenkov detector. It discovered a flux of cosmic neutrinos in the energy range from 10 TeV to 10 PeV, predominantly extragalactic in origin. Their corresponding energy density is close to that of high-energy photons detected by gamma-ray satellites and ultra-high-energy cosmic rays observed with large surface detectors. Neutrinos are therefore ubiquitous in the nonthermal universe, suggesting a more significant role of protons (nuclei) relative to electrons than previously anticipated. Thus, anticipating an essential role for multimessenger astronomy, IceCube is planning significant upgrades of the present instrument as well as a next-generation detector. Similar detectors are under construction in the Mediterranean Sea and Lake Baikal.

“…The next important step in the realization of the GVD project was made in 2013 by deployment of an enlarged engineering array -the first stage of the first GVD-cluster, which comprised 72 OMs arranged on three 345 m long strings and operated from April 2013 to February 2014 [1,7]. In 2014 the second stage of the demonstration cluster, which comprised 112 OMs arranged on five strings, as well as an instrumentation string with array calibration and environment monitoring equipment, was deployed.…”

Abstract. The future next-generation neutrino telescope Baikal-GVD will be a km3-scale array aimed at the detection of astrophysical neutrino fluxes. It will have modular structure and consist of functionally independent sub-arrays -clusters of strings of optical modules. The prototyping phase of the project has been concluded in 2015 with the deployment of the first cluster of Baikal-GVD in Lake Baikal. We discuss the current status and perspectives of the Baikal-GVD project.
