Calorimeters are one of the most versatile components of a modern detector. From energy measurement to particle identification, from time resolution to ``tracking'', to fast trigger capability, they offer excellent performance on a large variety of applications.
In this talk I will overview the calorimeters of the major modern high energy physics experiments, and I will touch briefly on...

The Pierre Auger Observatory is a multi-national project for research on ultra-high energy cosmic rays. The Southern Auger Observatory (Auger South) in Mendoza province, Argentina, was completed in 2008 with an instrumented area of 3,000 km**2. Science results form Auger South motivate the completion and extension of the investigations begun there by constructing the Northern Auger...

The Neutrino Telescope NT200 is operated since 1998 and was upgraded to the 10 Mton detector NT200+ in 2005. The preparation towards a development of a km3-scale detector in Lake Baikal is currently a central activity point. As an important milestone a km3-prototype Cherenkov string, based on completely new technology, has been installed in 2008 and was successfully operating together with...
