The Large Volume Detector (LVD) in the Gran Sasso underground Laboratory is a multipurpose detector consisting of a large volume of liquid scintillator interleaved with limited streamer tubes. In this paper we discuss its power to study low energy cosmic neutrinos. The results show that the first of the five LVD towers, operational since June 1992 with 368 tons of liquid scintillator, is well suited to detect neutrinos from collapsing stars with in all our Galaxy, over a wide range of burst duration (up to a few) hundreds seconds). One year data, collected since June 1992, have been analized and results are here discussed. No evidence for burst candidates has been found in this period of data taking.
For the complete list of the authors see paper Multiple Muon Events Observed in the LVD Experiment in these proceedings.
