The ANTARES experiment: past, present and future
  The ANTARES collaboration aims to build a deep underwater Cherenkov neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea at 2500 m depth, about 40 km off-shore of La Seyne sur Mer, near Toulon. The collaboration was formed in 1996 and the experiment is currently in the construction phase. The final ANTARES detector, consisting of 12 strings each equipped with 75 photomultiplier tubes, is planned to be fully deployed and taking data by 2007. The project aims to detect atmospheric and extraterrestrial neutrinos with energies above approx. 10 GeV by means of the Cherenkov light that is generated in water by charged particles which are produced in the neutrino interactions.
