Abstract
ANTARES (Astronomy with a Neutrino Telescope and Abyss environmental RESearch) is currently the largest neutrino observatory in the Northern hemisphere. The detector has been designed to detect high energy muon neutrinos coming from both galactic and extra-galactic sources, via the identification of muons, produced as the final state of charged current interactions of muon neutrinos with the medium surrounding the detector. The main goal of the ANTARES experiment is the search for high energy neutrinos of astrophysical origin. Besides the search for point-like steady sources, other physics topics are relevant for a deep sea neutrino observatory. Some research topics that are presently pursued within the ANTARES Collaboration will be presented here.
