Scientific paper

NESTOR is the first step toward the construction of a neutrino telescope using the depth of the sea both as a shield against atmospheric muons and as detector material. The experiment is based on the detection of Cerenkov radiation produced by neutrino muons using 12 in. photomultiplier tubes. 168 PMTs will be arranged in 12 floors separated by 20 m each and with a radius of 16 m.
