Scientific paper

After a brief review of the main missions of neutrino telescopes - astronomy and astrophysics, dark matter searches and particle physics - we describe the AMANDA South Pole neutrino detector. With an effective telescope area of order 104 m2 and a threshold of /~50 GeV, it represents the first of a new generation of high energy neutrino detectors, envisaged over 25 years ago. We describe its performance, and map AMANDA's expansion to a detector of kilometer dimension.
