Description
The Baikal Gigaton Volume Detector (Baikal-GVD) is a neutrino telescope deployed in the deep waters of Lake Baikal, designed to detect high-energy astrophysical neutrinos. This presentation will start with the field of neutrino astronomy. The principles behind astrophysical neutrino detection, including Cherenkov radiation will be mentioned. The unique environmental and geographical advantages of Lake Baikal as a site for neutrino research will be examined. An overview of the Baikal-GVD detector will be provided, covering its design and operational principles. Finally, the role of Baikal-GVD in the emerging field of multimessenger astronomy will be discussed in the end, since my bachelor's thesis was dedicated to the visualisation of the multimessenger data or Baikal-GVD.
