✦ Synopsis

We show new results from both the older and newer incarnations of AMANDA (AMANDA-BlO and AMANDA-II, respectively). These results demonstrate that AMANDA is a functioning, multipurpose detector with significant physics and astrophysics reach. They include a new higher-statistics measurement of the atmospheric muon neutrino flux and preliminary results from searches for a variety of sources of ultrahigh energy neutrinos: generic point sources, gamma-ray bursters and diffuse sources producing muons in the detector, and diffuse sources producing electromagnetic or hadronic showers in or near the detector.

We describe the design and operation of the first stage of the EAS-UAP extensive air shower array, as a detector of very high energy cosmic rays (E, > 1014eV). The array is located at the Campus of Puebla University and consists of 18 liquid scintillator detectors, with an active surface of 1 m2 eac

The Auger Observatory is a hybrid detector in which 3000 water Cherenkov detectors (WCD) operate in coincidence with atmospheric fluorescence detectors. Due to the limited duty cycle of the later the bulk of the data is provided by the surface detector array. Hence, the capacity of WCDs to discrimin
