摘要
The large-volume detector operating at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory, Italy, is intended primarily for detecting neutrinos from gravitational collapses in the Galaxy. The apparatus consisting of scintillation detectors, with a total scintillator mass of ∼1 kt, interleaved with iron (∼1 kt) has been collecting data since 1992. No candidates for neutrino bursts from collapsing stars have been found. The new upper limit of the frequency of supernova bursts in the Galaxy is reported. The results of the investigation of the space distribution of muon-produced neutrons are presented, and the possibilities for determining the charge composition of muon fluxes with energies Eμ > 5 TeV are considered.
