The objective of the Baikal Project is the creation of a kilometer-scale high-energy neutrino observatory: the Gigaton Volume Detector (GVD) in Lake Baikal. Basic elements of the GVD – new optical ...modules, FADC readout units, and underwater communication systems – were investigated and tested in Lake Baikal with prototype strings in 2008–2010. We describe the results of prototype strings operation and review the preliminary design and expected sensitivity of the GVD telescope.

We review the status of the Lake Baikal Neutrino Experiment. Preparation towards a km3-scale Gigaton Volume Detector (GVD) in Lake Baikal is currently a central activity. As an important milestone, a ...km3-prototype string comprising 6 optical modules and based on a completely new technology, has been installed and was put into operation together with NT200+ in April, 2008. An upgraded version of the prototype string, which comprises 12 optical modules, was put into operation in April 2009. We also present new results from the long-term operation of NT200, including an improved limit on the diffuse astrophysical neutrino flux.
