CONFERENCES AND SYMPOSIA. 110th ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIRTH OF P A CHERENKOV
Cherenkov water detector NEVOD
A. A. Petrukhin National Research Nuclear University MEPhI (Moscow Engineering Physics Institute), Moscow
Abstract:
A unique multipurpose Cherenkov water detector, the NEVOD facility, uses quasispherical measuring modules to explore all the basic components of cosmic rays on Earth's surface, including neutrinos. Currently, the experimental complex includes the Cherenkov water detector, a calibration telescope system, and a coordinate detector. This paper traces the basic development stages of NEVOD, examines research directions, presents the results obtained, including the search for the solution to the ‘muon puzzle’, and discusses possible future development prospects.
