Baikal-GVD is a next generation, kilometer-scale neutrino telescope currently under construction in Lake Baikal. GVD consists of multi-megaton subarrays (clusters) and is designed for the detection of astrophysical neutrino fluxes at…

We present the results of a search for high energy neutrinos with the Baikal underwater Cherenkov detector {\it NT-200.} An upper limit on the ($\nu_e+\tilde{\nu_e}$) diffuse flux of $E^2 \Phi_{\nu}(E)<(1.3 \div 1.9)\cdot 10^{-6} {cm}^{-2}…
