โœฆ Synopsis


This review presents the scientific objectives and status of Neutrino Telescope Projects under construction in the Mediterranean Sea. The science program of these projects covers: neutrino astronomy, dark matter searches and measurements of neutrino oscillations. The status of the two related water Cherenkov projects ANTARES and NEMO will be described together with the status of the NESTOR telescope. A comparison between underwater and under-ice neutrino telescopes will be given.
