Abstract

The ANTARES neutrino telescope has been accomplished in May 2008. Located at a depth between 2100 and 2500m in the Mediterranean Sea, 40km off the Provencal coast, it comprises a large three-dimensional array of 885 Optical Modules deployed on 12 vertical lines. The telescope is aimed to observe high energy cosmic neutrinos through the detection of the Cherenkov light produced by up-going induced muons. The status of the experiment is briefly reviewed, and first results of atmospheric muons and neutrinos analysis will be discussed.
