Abstract
We review the present status of the Lake Baikal neutrino experiment and pre sent selected physics results obtained during the consecutive stages of the stepwise upgrade of the detector: from NT-36 to NT-96. The results cover a tmospheric muons, neutrino events, neutrinos of very high energy, searches for neutrino events from WIMP annihilation, searches for magnetic monopoles , and environmental studies. We also describe an air Cherenkov array develo ped for studying the angular resolution of NT-200. (C) 2000 MAIK "Nauka/Int erperiodica".
