Scientific paper

The ANTARES underwater neutrino telescope is being deployed at 2500 m depth in the Mediterranean Sea at 40 km of the Toulon coast. The detector consists of an array of 900 photomultipliers distributed in 12 lines. The aim of the experiment is the detection of the high-energy (>1 TeV) cosmic neutrinos, detected from the Cherenkov light induced by the charged particle produced near or inside the instrumented volume from their interaction. The main goal of the ANTARES is to detect high energy neutrino point-like sources. It is helped in that by an angular resolution better than 0.3° above 10 TeV that enables the rejection of the dominating isotropic atmospheric neutrino flux. This work reviews the main searching algorithms developed by the collaboration, and their performances.
